Hi al
I am trying to listen to HD tracks downloaded from HD tracks, however i am expeirencing difficulties. I have purchased a M2tech Hiface and i plug this into a USB on my laptop and the connect to my rega Dac using an RCA lead, then onto my set up.
I am currently trying to use Foobar to listen to the tracks. If i listen to a track with the sample rate of 44100hz 16bit (PCM) it plays and the dac indicates the input correctly,
However if i try to listen to a track with the sample rate of 176400hz 24bit (Flac) if fails to play properly, the dac indicates the correct input, however there is mostly silence with the odd very short sound and the input lock light on the dac flashes. The equaliser within foobar flashes merrily to indicate it is playing.
I have spent the morning adding extensions(wasapi, ks etc) and going into the preferences in foobar and selecting various outputs all to no avail, the only way the sound plays properly is by selecting DS, however this outputs the track at 44.1hz.
I do not fully understand how this should work but feel i must be close, any ideas would be appreciated.
thanks
