Certainly not 96 vs. 44. Certainly not 16 vs 24. But certainly also no WAV vs FLAC (because WAV here works). There is one thing where WAV is special (and where AIF is not - just saying) and this is in the possible explicit copy actions. So, FLAC has input from wherever it is and the output goes to e.g. the XX folder (e.g. because when not denoted otherwise) while WAV stays where it is in the same situation (no input-output operation involved); I for sure worked with a Playback Drive exclusively, which means that WAV is now copied too (or activate Always copy to XX Folder and this would also imply copying of the WAV). Because all (multithreading) is related to input and outputs for inputs (and e.g. HDCD implying another part of such chain) I can imagine that a certain combination just is too difficult (to even "see happening" for me). Only guessing possible reasons ... |

and so Aiff gets copied just like Flac no matter what?
and it is only wave that sits and stays where it is?

Okay, then I will check tonight by forcing to playback drive or forcing the xx folder and see. But since most of my collection of CDs is Aiff, and Aiff must get copied, I don't see why that would work. But as you said, this I/O stuff and multitasking is complex. Anything could be.

specifying a playback Drive did not solve the problem.
Aiff 16 bit 44 kilohertz did not multitask... only one track at a time.

Had an hour last night so I gave 186-i a try on my standard NOS-1. As there are so many alternatives and I didn't have much time these are only first impressions. First, as great as the soundstage has been, it became even better. Single Instruments as well as orchestral sections are even more defined and ""right there" within the sound stage. Second the venue whether recording studio or live on stage is much more easily heard even on cr*ppy Eva Cassidy recordings. And lastly, it seems that its no longer possible to get the HF to distort, which is both pleasing and a little weird. I was playing female vocals at 90-92 db and they sounded great except it was too loud. My normal levels around 85-88 sounded good too but at 16x upsampling they were a bit too smooth sounding. At 8x and even 4x they seemed to have more weight and punch. When I was testing the upsampling settings I was using the 176 filter which allowed me to play 4x. 8x, and 16x without changing the filter. I thought 16x sounded much more like 8x using the 176 filter so that filter was definitely preferred for 16x. The 705 filter just looses to much punch on my system (91db speaker sensitity).
Am hoping a 384 filter is added to the mix just to give that a go too! I tried the AI filter using a wave file but it took forever to process. After two minutes of waiting for a standard 16/44, 4 minute, wave track I gave up. Though I'm saving my pennies for the NOS-1a upgrade, am really wondering if its necessary after what I heard last night!

After two minutes of waiting for a standard 16/44, 4 minute, wave track I gave up Brian, engage "Start playback during conversion". Side note : Officially this is not the best of course because now the conversion will be commencing when playback occurs. But this is how so many things come together with the NOS1a and the irrelevance of this all then ... And thank you for sharing. Will make a 352.8 filter when I have some time. But we can already see (from your post) the permutations occurring ...  Peter |

Maybe I misunderstood, but I thought that without the new NOS1a driver we couldn't select the Custom checkbox. I just did that, selected Custom, and got a very different sound from the arc prediction checkbox. I think I like Custom more than arc prediction but am surprised it played. Is there something wrong that I can play music selecting the Cutom checkbox without the new driver?

The only thing wrong would be that you now listen from a different space - prison. But no, this is not related to the NOS1(a) driver at all.  Peter |
