Topic: ADI-2 DAC FS max sample rate supported by Windows 11?
Question on max sample rate supported on Windows 11 for the ADI-2 DAC FS.
Any time I set the sample rate higher than 384kHz in the MADIface settings, even though the DAC status reflects the higher sample rate, Windows no longer sees the ADI-2 DAC FS as an output device. It is still listed in device manager, but in control panel > hardware > sound > playback "Analog (1+2) RME ADI-2 DAC" disappears. As soon as I set it back to 384kHz, it reappears and anything that outputs audio 'sees' it again.
If I uninstall the driver for the RME ADI-2 DAC through device manager, choosing to delete the driver, and allow windows to install the driver automatically, 384kHz is the max listed sample rate in the default rate listed in the Advanced tab of the properties of the "Analog (1+2) RME ADI-2 DAC device. I assumed that was due to the lack of native ASIO drivers in Windows.
Is 384kHz the limit for Windows, or am I doing something wrong that is preventing me from achieving 768kHz?
My set up is a Windows 11 laptop attached via two USB-C connectors to a dell docking station, from the docking station via 2.0 cable to the ADI-2 DAC FS, then via a pair of XLR to the back of a DROP THX AAA 789 headphone amp, from the front of that a balanced cable connects to my cans.
Thanks in advance for the help!
