198.54.202.234
Original version 0.1 can be found at http://www.audioasylum.com/forums/pcaudio/messages/19242.html. I decided to skip version 0.2 which would’ve been a straight forward application of version 0.1’s change log (see http://www.audioasylum.com/forums/pcaudio/messages/19575.html). Version 0.3 brings 3 new sections:
1. An explanation of how sound is digitally represented
2. A deep dive into upsampling
3. Guidance for HTPC users on which optimizations to change
Optimizations have grown extensively with version 0.3 (both subtle and significant). Summary:
Section 1: EAC – no changes. Use of ‘Process WAV’ utility is highlighted
Section 2: Foobar2000 – Use latest version 0.9.4.4 with other updates as well (UI and other components). Foobar’s ASIO component has been recently updated which must be used. Other subtle but important changes have been made.
Section 3: Hardware & BIOS – Major changes.
Section 4: Software – Major changes.
It’s definitely worth going through each optimization carefully! Sonic improvements are significant. The only benchmarks or worthy comparisons for this level of performance are the finest in high-end analogue turntables.
AA members have contributed handsomely to this new release: inputs from texastea006 (Mike), Edward & others have resulted in useful changes. Thank you.
Your findings, questions, comments and criticisms are welcome – it all helps!
