Changes :

  • For sound quality (Engine#3) this is a mix of version 0.9d and 0.9j.
    If you don't recognize the sound of either ... that's possible. If all is right it's for the better.

  • At the low end 4 values of Q1 were added (those below 0). The other values remained unchanged for their effect.

  • Cue File support for Engine#3;
    Only EAC created Cue Files were tested. Possibly more formats exist, and if they are not compatible with the output of EAC, they won't work.
    The large WAV file must be dragged onto the Playlist Area (so not the .cue file ! -> currently you can do it, but it gives error messages).
    If the large WAV is loaded via the Library button, it will just act as the large WAV as always.
    When the WAV is dragged as proposed, the individual tracks will show, and they can be selected for playback.
    Individual tracks can be dragged to the Delete button for removal from the Playlist Area (in fact as usual).
    When the contents of the Playlist Area is saved (Save button), the "Cue files" will re-appear at re-loading, as if they were individual tracks.
    Cue File tracks are allowed to be right in the middle of normal separate tracks.
    The literal contents of the large WAV is fed to the player, so not even one byte is extracted from the file or changed.
    Note that at pressing Play or Next etc. or at the use of any of the "real time changing" settings the whole large WAV has to be reloaded. At subsequent playing of the individual tracks in there this does not happen, and the file stays loaded.


Additional issues ? Possibly yes. Many things were changed in order to let the Cue Files work and testing of it can be endless.

Edit :

One thing was found anyway : When the Q1 slider is set to 0, at the next startup it will default to 14.

Bugfix :

  • With a direct connected DAC (like with USB) the "real time" changeable settings would produce an error message at the first attempt because the DAC still being in use. This is fixed now.
