His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej passed away at Siriraj Hospital at 3.52pm on Thursday, the Royal Household Bureau announced. His majesty was a great king and he had done so much for his people. His teachings about sufficiency economy will live on in hearts of his people.
As fellow Thai citizen who loves music. I’d like to share one of his Jazz performance to remember how much he contributed to music in Thailand.
Some people asked me this question for a few times, some even mistook it as Fidelizer error so allow me to elaborate why this happens.
Using foobar2000 + wasapi is optional recommendation for bit-perfect playback. I believe you may also need to learn about bit-perfect playback and exclusive access for why error happens. Using WASAPI exclusive will need to have audio output locked to specific application, in this case it’s foobar. If you have other processes occupying audio output like playing YouTube or having other software using audio, it won’t work.
Please keep in mind that using bit-perfect playback will require audio device to support source format. You may need downsampling to play hires tracks using bit-perfect output for audio devices that doesn’t support. You can change to DirectSound so it won’t require to acquire exclusive access though sound will come through system mixer with default sampling rate applied. Anyway, it’s error without foobar playback by itself and has nothing to do with Fidelizer. You can still use Fidelizer effectively with VLC and others.
I hope this will clear out the confusion about bit-perfect playback in foobar2000 software I suggested.
It’s been a few months since launching Nimitra Computer Audio Server product. During these times, I also met Stiring Trayle and Roy Gregory when they came to demonstrate system setup in Thailand at Deco’s audiophile shop. Roy took interests in Nimitra product so he told me he’d write a short review about Nimitra. Here’s his comment about sound quality part.
So far, listening experience with the Nimitra has been limited to a system in which it was acting as a network player connected to a dCS Vivaldi DAC. The results were unusually planted and rhythmically coherent for a file source, with greater body, weight, musical coherence and structural organization than I’m used to from file sources. But perhaps most interesting was the direct comparison with a MacBook Air, running on battery and feeding the DAC’s USB input via Nordost’s excellent Blue Heaven USB cable, a setup that produced a sound that was insubstantial, flattened and disjointed in comparison. All of which marks the Fidelizer as apart from other file-replay solutions I’ve heard. It seems that the high-end aspirations have been realized and that all that comparative listening has paid off.
It’s an honor for my first hardware product to be reviewed by well known writer such as Roy. Stirling Trayle also bought Nimitra after setting up Wilson speakers using Nimitra device. I’m sending Nimitra to a few reviewers so more will come soon.
Here’s a new feedback today. I received his feedback after helping him purchase through Teamviewer.
Hi Keetakawee,
All I can say is wow, I am in audio heaven. I cannot believe the difference between the free version and the Pro version, it is simply amazing, thank you so much for making Fidelizer Pro work so well. You are a genius.I wish you a long life and happiness.
Regards
Kevin Knight.
I’m glad to hear Fidelizer Pro is performing amazingly in his system. 🙂
Here’s another feedback today. This time it’s from Fidelizer Pro user.
Hello Keetakawee,
this is just to let you know that it is working perfectly. My feeling is a clearer sound and a more precise scene construction.
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Andrea
The sound will become clearer with more precise imaging with Fidelizer. 🙂
