Hey Peter - let me first start off with saying the new double/upsample capabilities of 0.9u-1 sound great so far! My DAC loves it.

And also, I just wanted to ask a question. You had mentioned (somewhere before) about the possibility of adding dither. Are you in fact adding dither now?

Yeah, I don't know much about dither either. I was just wondering if that is what was sounding so good.

Or what about anti-aliasing? Is that any good?
