changing the device in the fab4.lua file does have an effect on the
sound, think you are only going to appreciate that if you try it
yourself.
setting it to be the same device as the usb device in the EDO.lua file
gives a fuller sound than with it at default.
don't know why, but there is a

this value is totally irrelevant when EDO is used - it will have no
impact on sound quality.

Hello Phil,
I have now modified the file custom-convert.conf and the DSP
correction is applied for the apple lossless files, while aac (m4a
compressed) are played without the intervention of the DSP.
My attual configuration of custom-convert.conf:

I'm confused, which is untrue? The fact the the vlink 192 isn't
galvanized isolated on the input or that there are others on this forum
that just repeat what you say?

doesn't really put him any further ahead than the spdif implementation

Changing buffer size where the actual buffer size used changes could
easily have an effect. Changing it beyond the

Don't worry I have one. In fact you got all defensive and told me you
would have to get an OffRamp to compete with your Touch mods when I
suggested it to you.
LOL

that's how things move forward, the first response is always

have you tried my mods ?

No, I went with the Hiface 2 and Aqvox power supply to get my sanity
back, it sounds better than it ever has with the straight touch and
various mods.

same here, very happy with the sound now. was just tying up a few loose
ends.
posted this in the main EDO thread, but thought I'd post it hear in case
anyone feels like getting the soldering iron out.
I was still getting quite a lot of hf noise which I assumed was related
to EDO. Turns out it was due to the usb cable, even though I had cut it
down to 20cm and disconnected

This is interesting. I thought you were using a period count of 4. In
this case the period count is so large it hits another limit (total
buffer size) in the driver. This means that the period size/period time

With lower buffer time the buffer size and period size would be smaller.
The exact buffer cut off that allows this behaviour is
