How to use Digicheck NG without Totalmix? I have the the ADI 2 DAC Converter. Maybe I have to create a virtual Loopback?

Hey, cool. looks absolutely beautiful, Phosphorescence, yess ;-)  - Thanks

the setting window for two channel level meter could be bigger, when open - just miss some settings at first view ;-)

And, is there a way to name the channels in Multichannel Level Meter ? (I remember it was possible in the old version, right?)
And, I would like to have infinite peak hold for the spectral analyser

So far, so good. Thanks a lot - like alway:  'all good things are worth waiting for'  ;-)

first of all thank you
Is it possible that Digicheck NG doesn't work with ADI2-DAC fs?

Hi!
Thank you so much!

What do you mean by "doesn't work"?

You can monitore signal entering your computer, not the music that you're playing

On the DAC, on the "Source" menu, select "Record SPDIF..." and you will be able to monitore on your computer the SPDIF signal through USB.

Very impressed with this release. Thank you!

I love the new multi window layout and the ability to resize windows, but I would really like it if there was a 3 & 4 Horizontal display mode. This is how I've been using Digicheck for a long time - a multichannel meter bridge followed by a Totalyzer. To get this with DC NG I use two windows - 1 for multi channel level followed by Spectral Analyser and a second window for Vector Audio Scpoe followed by 2 Channel Meter.

A small bug I found when in th 2 instrument horizontal mode with the Multichannel Level meter was the results text disappear. The only way to get it to display in any horizontal window layout was to use a 1 instrument window.

I confirm your mention of minimum window width being too large for the 2 and 4 bar level meter but this is not the case when using 2 instrument horizontal mode. In this mode the 2&4 channel meters does not have this problem.

The other thing I noticed on a 2012 6 core Mac Pro running Mojave 10.14.6 was the CPU overhead to run my preferred configuration was much improved!. In OSX activity monitor, CPU with old DC was in the range 25-30% (of one core). With DC NG running the same set of instruments the CPU is 8-10%. Brilliant.

What a great improvement overall. Thanks again.

When the level text disappears then space is insufficient. Reduce the result font size and it will reappear.

Oops, does it mean Digicheck can "just" monitor input signals. I thought I could use for monitoring my DAW as well...

Thanks very much for this so much waited update.
My question :

Would it be possible to change the color of the spectral analyser, turn it into blue on dark blue for instance ?
There is some empty space in the settings bottom...
The update would be then just perfect !!!

Not working (blank screen) on my Mac Pro 5.1 (2010) running 10.13.6 High Sierra, but i assume this is not a bug and i would need to upgrade the GPU (currently ATI Radeon HD 5770) for Metal Support, right?

Funny, who would have thought that of all things RME compatibility would make me think about a GPU upgrade again?

To be fair, the previous Digicheck runs flawlessly on my old Mac, so no real problem ...

Same here on Catalina (see my recent post here)..
Solution until they fix it:
Right click on the right side of the window, uncheck Spectral analyser.

exact same problem here,
if I check Console for live errors, I can see: Digicheck NG - LSExceptions shared instance invalidated for timeout.
and also similar error message for Spotlight and Console

specs: hackintosh MacOS 10.13.6 (17G65) High Sierra, iMac Pro definition,
i7-5820K, 32GB ram, GTX 1080 Ti with nVidia Web Drivers, RME HDSPe AIO

super cool - setting the display mode of the spectrum analyser to "point mode" is great..shows per band dynamic range. hypnotising too

1-4 window to the need a snap
Good JOB! i like this new DC ，it's good work for ME

Afaik you could loopback the digital signal inside your computer. I've tried this yesterday with 3rd party app called "loopback" but didn't worked out well. Inside Digicheck NG I can only select the ADI 2 DAC as an input, loopback is not listed.. it's a bit annoying.

Another Option could be to route the analog line output via another converter back inside the ADI 2 DAC spdif input?

Maybe someone could help us and recommend a workout for digital loopback and DG NG.

This is a solid new Digicheck.
Well first time i opened it, my macbook pro froze, but a restart got it working.
And then the thing to try to find out how to avoid it responding to the volyme at use, but i few moments got me past that.
Wish it had its own channel kind of thing, so it could be at working level all the time without changing if i use headphones or monitors. Now, using them on monitors i need headphones on full volyme.
But last Digicheck was the same so, ill guess it stays that way.

can we expect a windows update as well?

hello

this new DC seems nice ! unfortunately, i'm stuck in 10.9.5, because of avid. so, DIGICheck 0.73 Mac is, AND WILL ALWAYS BE the last DC version for me, isn't it ?

cheers

Why do we need a (somewhat restrictive) layout box at all? We put each instrument in it's own window and use the OS desktop to size, arrange (even onto separate desktops), and snap together instruments at will. Are there performance or UI advantages to the layout box? Losing it would significantly simplify the UI.

Turning on K-System metering seems to set the related parameters' default values to the K-System, so when you turn off K-System metering it's still there. When we're not using the K-System, we're looking at noise floor, which is quite different. It was nice to easily switch between K-System and a default alternate, which now gets clobbered.

I've added input names for the Multichannel Level Meter but I had to make the text bigger than I wanted, I guess there is a limit to how many letters you can type (Was done by typing input name, than spaces and again next input name etc.)

Yes, this is nice.
But it is not calibrated. If you change the window size, it won't fit anymore.

--> I like to have for this case an option for "stereo coupling" in the settings and one name slot for these two channels, instead of the numbers !  This, with the option to have it at top/bottom would be great !
