Hi a newbie question.

Beside DoP, is it possible to have native DSD playback from NUC to Mytek Brooklyn (USB)? If yes, how do I go about that?

Thanks all.

Raymond

I think this thread will answer your question…

Can it be that native DSD on Mytek Brooklyn DAC is supported but on DAC+ isn’t ?..

Yes, if it has a different USB id then that certainly can be the case.

Do you own such a machine? Then I might be able to help out.

Ok… so how is it connected? Directly to the ROCK?

Yes it is directly connected via USB. Here I tried to describe the issue: [How to get native DSD from ROCK to Mytek Brooklyn](https://community.roonlabs.com/t/how-to-get-native-dsd-from-rock-to-mytek-brooklyn/29603/11?u=dakabali)

</div>

yeah ok… I’m not that familiair with ROCK, but are you able to login (SSH) to it? Then we can have a look. Or the other option is to connect it (USB) to a Windows machine and you try to find the ID in the configuration menu.

</div>

Ok… I already have the answer. There’s no way to login to ROCK, so we need to try something else. Do you have a windows machine (or ideally: a Linux machine) where you can connect it with?

I’m doing it but you must tell me what the USB Device Viewer is and how to start it (sorry…)

Download this SDK and install it first: [https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/windows-10-sdk](https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/windows-10-sdk)

it would take ages… it is the usbview.exe what’s needed isn’t it? I got it from a seperate download and started it:

Yep ok. This indeed explains why native DSD works with the Brooklyn DAC, but not with the DAC+.

Now, I’m able to patch the linux kernel (also used by ROCK), so I’ll try to do that asap and poke @danny to patch it into ROCK.

Cheers for that. I’m glad I could provide the necessary information. If you @spockfish and @danny need more details on the Brookly+ do not hesitate.
