Support - (fb2k) / Re: Bitperfect audio in v2.x?
Last post by Case -
It allows you to make a choice. The non-exclusive output is always 32-bit floating point as that's the native format of the mixer. For those bit-perfect outputs you should select the highest supported by your hardware.

You should always use event based mode. That is the most efficient and "correct" way: playback thread sleeps and consumes zero resources while it waits for the audio interface to play its buffer. Once the device needs more data, it signals the thread to give more data. The other option is to constantly poll the device and ask "are you done yet, are you done yet, are you done yet...".
But you should never need to touch the settings, defaults should work. And if they don't, Peter wants you to report what kind of device you have and what kind of workarounds it needs to not glitch. Then such settings will be added to a workaround list and applied automatically for all users of said setup.

3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: JScript Panel
Last post by evilgenius187 -
Hey Marc, awesome stuff.

  • Is it possible to have for example 1 parent panel with a background/wallpaper while having 3 children on top of it with transparency? So let's say your base is a vertical splitter with the blurred current playing wallpaper. Instead of having 3 blurred backgrounds.
  • Any way to have album covers show in front of each track while not using groups?

I have some programming knowledge, if it's possible, maybe you could point me to the right direction? Nowadays I rarely create accounts to ask for help, but had to do it.

Thanks in advance and keep up the great work man.

The bitperfect output you want requires WASAPI exclusive, also supported natively. Just select an output that has "[exclusive]" at the end of the name.

Why does the non-exclusive output have an "auto" setting for the bit-depth, while the exclusive output requires you to make a choice?

(And while I'm at it, when would you chose to use the event-based mode, IIRC now in the advanced settings panel?)

I've found this YT channel of an audiophile "expert": https://www.youtube.com/c/TheHansBeekhuyzenChannel

Two examples:

The audio network filter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDiHFYHKij4

Enjoy :D

It's fascinating how the gentleman in the video, considering his age, talks about improving stereo separation, sibilance or sound relaxation...
And if he didn't perceive it that way himself and has it "second hand", then it's even more fascinating..
