Hi, concerning Matrix Element X (not X2).
I am using this over USB.
The manual says USB PCM is 16-24 bits 44.1k-768k
However in the Matrix Audio Control Panel (Asio?)
I can select under the tab "Format" : 2 channels 32 bit.
In my player softwares (Audirvana and Foobar) I can select to upsample to 24 bit of 32 bit.
The software recommendeds to upsample to the max bit depth the dac can handle.
My question are :
Why can I select 32 bits ? Is the Asio driver reducing it automatically from 32 to 24 bits?
What are the correct setting I should I choose ?
Matrix Audio Panel "Format" 2 channels 24 bit (and player software also 24 bit) or 32 bit (and player software also 32 bit)?
I'm confused.
Thank you.
