Optimising your computer for the
audio playback via the Linear USB
1 | Volume
For quality reasons the volume adjustment should always be made on the Linear
USB. To this purpose set all volume controls in your computer to maximum. Those
may well be up to three different controls: signal source/mixer channel (e.g.
Wave), mixer master output, application (e.g. media player). Otherwise the volume
level achievable with the Linear USB will appear far too soft. When rebooting
the playback software or the operating system it may occur that the volume will
always be reset to a lower value. To void this, you'd better adjust your default
settings.
2 | Mixer
If possible, bypass PC onboard mixers.
3 | Sampling rate
Play back audio files in their original sampling rate. If possible, bypass internal
sampling rate conversions on your computer. In particular the conversion from
44.1 kHz to 48 kHz, which is a standard setting on many PCs, can produce sonic
drawbacks.
4 | Cable connection
Do not pull the USB out of the device while in playback mode. Normally this will
cause the software player to freeze and therefore require a reboot.
5 | ASIO drivers
Experts may install so-called ASIO drivers under Windows, but must make sure
then that this will also be supported by the software player. If necessary, an ASIO
support for the software player must be installed later on. A source for a free ASIO
driver (Windows) can be found at www.asio4all.com.
