![]() ![]() BITPERFECT ITUNES DRIVERSSo far there are two alternatives to bypass this: ASIO drivers or WASAPI. Still many things to clarify, but this is an awesome start point! But is this really everything there is about the infamous non bit-perfect reproduction issue in Windows? If we set 44.1 kHz as default sample rate, we will get bit-perfect playback on any software? Then, after all, this was not an iTunes related issue?Įdit 2: Seems that the issue comes from the DSP applied by all versions of Windows and Windows API, and the inability of iTunes to bypass this. source If you are going to pick reasons not to use iTunes, let it be because it is proprietary software over open source, supports proprietary formats discourages use of open source codecs (flac), is sluggish, and supports a medium monopoly. It really isn't a big deal, but if you insist there is documentation to help you out. This means windows goes from 44.1-44.1 for your music, and downsamples or upsamples anything that isn't 44.1. Playback devices window, click on your sound card, advanced, set sample rate to 44.1 if you are playing cd audio. When it does this windows has to resample everything so that it can be properly mixed. ![]() There is a windows api to play audio through that mixes all audio that a program wants to play. Is there any DSP going on? Dither, re-sampling? And why would they do that? Is there any proof?Įdit: we got this really interesting reply from Jo3M3tal (it's hidden because of the downvotes of other comment): I keep reading that iTunes running on a Windows system is not bit-perfect, but I can't find why is that. ![]()
