usb dac

Guys, I'm quite new to the FreeBSD world but amazed so far. Please, out of curiosity, you guys who use USB DACs could you share ideas and/or sysctl.conf how to tweak the audio system for highest possible quality. Things regarding bitperfect and such. Thank you! This is all I currently got: #...

Hi, This is a fairly straight-forward question that I could not find a definitive answer to: Is FreeBSD able to connect to UAC2 DACs? I have the JDS Labs Atom DAC that is an UAC2 device. Its firmware can be "gimped" to the UAC1-only mode, but it is a one-way process since the XMOS DFU cannot...

I've been trying to track down an issue I'm having with FreeBSD not detecting USB inputs via my KVM switch. It works perfectly, until I switch away for a certain amount of time or unplugging the KVM device altogether. If I switch away my input devices to my other system and my FreeBSD desktop...

Anyone have experience with this product or similar high sample rate DACs on FreeBSD 11? I'm setting up a dedicated Windows box soon and/or emulation with Xen or bhyve, so I'm still going to get it regardless and will have a chance to test it myself. Supposedly it requires proprietary drivers...

Hi all, Is there a way set permanently mixer volume to max (100%) of given USB DAC in /etc/sysctl.conf? or other way? thank you.

I'm using a USB DAC as my sole audio output (besides system beep) and it works, but the sound devices built into the motherboard are interfering. cat /dev/sndstat Installed devices: pcm0: <Realtek ALC892 (Rear Analog 7.1/2.0)> (play/rec) default pcm1: <Realtek ALC892 (Front Analog)> (play/rec)...

Hello, I'm using FreeBSD 10.1 and for sound I own a Cambridge Audio DAC Magic 100 (asynchronous USB). I've noticed that it makes crackles randomly... I've had the same problem under ArchLinux (ALSA), the solution was to get a refund for the asynchronous that I had USB DAC and buy this one :(...

Hello. I've just switched to FreeBSD 7.3 from Ubuntu. On Ubuntu my Hi-Fi USB Audio Card used to work, but now it doesn't.. I've set snd_uaudio_load="YES" in /boot/loader.conf, and snddetect_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf, then rebooted, and now cat /dev/sndstat says the following...
