Do send Harry a feedback packet on the advanced page and let him know the number code returned here. The dac needs to be on when you do it and wait at least 10 mins aftwards to let the feedback be sent to his end.
Thanks for the logs.
These show that the DAC does not support native DSD.
However, there might be a ‘but’. They way how the device announces itself it might very well be that there’s a mistake made in the description, so I’ll do the following: I’ll patch the kernel for RoPieee’s next update so you can try.
Trial and error, with a high change of failure. But hey, let’s give it a try
I looked into this myself at the time and I understand my Korg DS-DAC-100 uses the same driver as your DS_DAC-10R unit so this should work the same.
I have this setup to playback Roon via HQPlayer for best quality. This achieves bullproof up-sampling and playback of DSD128 using all Roon sources and formats. I output to active monitors via the Korg balanced outputs without a preamp, using a passive balanced volume control between the Korg and the active monitors. This additional volume control was needed as the volume control on the Korg unit only controls the headphone jack.
And it does sound good as well So it is possible, hope this helps, Neil
Bottom line is that the USB firmware needs an update. The chance of that is rather small. Most devices aren’t even capable of updating their USB firmware.
