No DSD Playback strategy menu when I connect my Soekris 1541 DAC

Hi,

I just borrowed a Soekirs 1541 DAC from my friend, and after I connected the DAC, there’re 2 option/menu disappeared

The “DSD Playback Strategy” menu disappeared. Then I switched back to my old iFi Zen DAC, the “DSD Playback Strategy” menu re-appeared again.
Max Sample Rate (PCM) drop down list only offers two options; Up to 48kHz and Up to 96kHz. With my old iFi DAC, I’ve got and option up to 384kHz.

Could anyone give any suggestion please

Thank you in advance

Tayawat

As you can see, that the Soekris DAC uses here USB 1.0.
There seems on the back of the DAC a switch for selecting USB 2.0.

And also for windows:
I’ll think, that you’ve to download and install the drivers and use them for your endpoint.

You need “Exclusive Mode” also…

Just a scan Fyi, Roons audio options change depending on the dac.

Problem solved!!!

Thank you everyone for your suggestions. After I switched to USB Mode 2 at the back of the DAC and turned on Exclusive Mode, the DSD playback strategy re-appeared again as well as Max sample rate option availability up to 384kHz.

I do appreciate your helps

Thank you
