Upsampling in Roon 1.3

[baconbrain]

Hi guys I am getting great results using Roon (on my sT) to upsample to 16bit to 24/176.40 and 24/192 with the linear phase filter.

The sound is airier and more expansive, the 176.40 setting is particularly interesting. Tried DSD but I get dropouts and tracks start jumping, I guess the sT isn't quite powerful enough. What little I hear is nice and is making me want to upgrade my sT!

This is using my totaldac d1 server and d1-six DAC. Haven't tried with the Devialet yet.

If the white paper I attached is correct, the Devialet will over sampling the 176.4 to 192.  We really need confirmation on this.

If it's the case, it makes the most sense when you do the Devialet to just convert everything right to 192 in roon or leave it alone I guess.

When using HQPlayer, my preference clearly lies with upsampling to 192/24 prior to feeding the Dev. I imagine that this will vary between the individual setups / tastes. Curious to try with Roon 1.3 as HQP in NAA mode as been my favorite so far.
