Oh, obviously this is from my "super duper" NOS1 Phasure DAC, and I can tell you that a new version of it is coming up. This time it will have a kind of infinitly more "fast" analogue stage. Yep, that's the attention point now : very fast analogue parts. And we will see what that brings ...
(it has been a kind of quiet around the NOS1, right ? ... not for long anymore).

Yes! Too quiet.
And I'm waiting for updates :D

Very interesting.

So now you can calculate a digital correction signal to get perfect output from your DAC?
Like digital negative feedback, maybe not realtime but still?

Well, some of you may have noticed the QControl tab being there right from the beginning, and that it contained an "Input" combobox for selecting a capturing device (the opposite of the sound device under Settings). Now the Q sliders got there, and the Input combobox got removed temporarily, but yes ...

... that has been my dream right from the start.

What you don't know yet - but I will write extensiveley about that later - is that the whole lot is already self contained. So for the measuring part XXEngine3 does it all itself, and it records while it's playing, and what it records is known to itself and it could be used in real time.
A more sad point - and this is unexpected - is that the data seems to be more off than what can be worked with. On that matter I can only hope it is the ADC doing that to me, which is yet to prove. But if so, solutions to that are in my mind ...

Now you know.
Happy

(Ava, good !)

PS: I don't know if I ever get around with this really, but it can only work for an NOS DAC, and which is inherently filterless.

Edit : I stuffed in the picture below, showing the Analysis section (which nobody can see in real life).
