What do you mean by GUI version?
Dan and allo are working on a new version of the dietpi thats has a Graphical User Interface. (usbridge)
Great, thanks. So it will only work for usbridge or also DigiOne?
By the way I am very happy with the performance of the DigiOne (fed by an Sbooster Lpsu). It has surpassed the quality of every USB source I have tried with my Marantz HD-DAC1, including nano iUSB 3.0 + iSilencer (followed by Singxer F1 or not), Silex DS-510 and others.
DigiOne works on RPI , USBridge on Sparky. The GUI comes for Usbridge (sparky) , will come for RPI in the future .
We are testing the GUI already tx you @Dan_Knight
We need that dietpi image for digione too!
yeap comming
A post was merged into an existing topic: Audio drops with DigiOne [SOLVED: Defective Amp]
Hi there, I got my digione today in the mail, I’ve been using 502dac from pi2desing, out of the box sound is much clear, relaxed and balanced, congratulations allo team! you made a really good job with this board!
Thx you , we appreciate it .
Hi
I wonder if anyone can advise on an issue I’m having. Here’s my setup:
Volumio on Raspberry 3 Model B -> Allo Digione -> coax -> chord mojo -> akg k550 headphones. Roon remote on iPad.
So this set up works fine, however, I’ve noticed that when the Mojo is switched off I can hear hum/interference through the headphones. Working back through the Audio chain the interference stops when I touch any part of the Allo or RPi circuit board or either of the output connectors on the Allo. So I’m thinking that my body is grounding this interference. When I switch the Mojo back on the interference disappears so I’m presuming the Mojo is doing some sort of filtering when active.
Anybody else have this experience? Is there something I can do to ‘ground’ the RPi/Allo?
Incidentally I also listen to my Mojo through the same headphones via. USB on my MacBook and iPad and I don’t get this interference hence I’ve isolated it to the RPi/Allo.
Many thanks for any advice.
I’ve solved the problem. The ifi I power I was using to power the rPi was the cause of the interference (oh the irony given it’s meant to be an ‘ultra low noise’ supply). Swapped it with an Apple iPad charger and some random micro usb cable I had lying around and the interference has gone.
This leaves me with the question - given the amount of filtering on the digione do I even need an ultra low noise psu for the rPi/Allo combo?
Glad you solved the problem. Grounding and interference are very hard to pinpoint or solve.
Regarding your question…theoretically no. Practically , you have multiple kind of noise. Ifi PSU is great at solving the differential noise . However our filtering is also great for it.
Then you have the “common mode noise”. Ifi psu is not great at solving those, but we do have a filter for that. Then you have “leakage currents”. At last you have noise injected back into mains and picked up by your DAC/AMP
All this to say that PSU can make a difference even though we have designed the DigiOne with great care.
Thank Johan. I’m going to stick with the iPad charger/random-microUSB cable combo for now as it seems to be working fine
Odd. The ifi is fine with my RPi/DigiOne.
It’s highly probable that I’ve just got a faulty ipower.
Just installed ifi with the DigiOne today (10/6/2017). So far, so good.
There were some faulty ones in early batches but it shouldn’t be happening now.
HI,
Yesterday I received my Digione and i have to say I’m super happy with the sound quality, definitely a step ahead of my old hifiberry digi+
I’m just having an issue tho, after a certain time of inactivity (probably a couple of hours) I have to restart the rpi in order to get sound from the device.
I’m using Dietpi software.
Does anyone incurred in the same problem?
Also, any chance to get rid of the pop/click when changing from a DSD track to a PCM?
Thank you
I have a similar problem but using Volumio and it doesn’t always happen. Like you my DAC and Roon stop seeing the RPi/Digione and I either have to do a soft restart of volumio via its web interface or unplug/plug back in the power to the RPi.
In my case Roon sees the Rpi but when I start the reproduction it doesn’t play any sound
