apparently linux audio is immune from the differences heard in MQn and this is not allowed to be discussed in a public forum by the poor deluded people who want to report it.

wouldn't be an issue if there were tests that reflected the user experience.
Aren't you glad you have such enlightened, intelligent believers like us lot?!

Are you still planning to move your attentions to Linux?
They don't have have need of you. MPD dressed up to the nines to look like something completely different, but if you polish a t**d, what do you get ? A t**d of course.

You could wipe the floor with your render loop refinement, and no Windows to get in the way and a Real Time OS (if you chose the right one).

would like to get the exe down to 4 kb as that would be the optimimum. Had a go at linux and would be a long term project.

8.65 is very nice, so maybe not much wrong with windows. Also dual booting my uefi laptop is a pain.

Good detail

tracks with a little static background still seem to be amplified when compared to wasapi
maybe thats noise?
agility seems a little slow maybe something similar to difference between avx and avx2 wasapi
With 8.64 Normal, I am getting an over-exaggerated emphasis on the vocals centre compared with the excellent more balanced 8.61 Normal. A bit strained.
Yes
there is better clarity and focus with 8.61
which us something mqn ks is lacking in
makes 8.64/5 sound strained and noisy
so Probably left something good behind
