RE: Allo USBridge Signature - cryptout - 12-09-2019
I could use some help...
Sadly yesterday evening clicks and pops suddenly occurred during a listening session. I tried changing the MPD settings Audio buffer from 4096 with incremental steps to 20480 and also the fill before play from none to 30% but notting seems to work. I also did a few reboots and checked my cables.
With some songs I get clicks within a minute, with others it takes longer.
The weird thing is that the day before I did not hear clicks and pops with 30% fill before play and 4096 buffer.
Any tips on what to do next?
PS,
I only play aiff or mp3 files and don't do resampling.

The symptoms suggest a hardware problem unless you have installed "OS tweaks" or manually modified the stock moOde configuration in some way, then it could be a software problem.
The "NN% fill before play" option is only visible with MPD 0.20 series which indicates that your version of moOde is older than the current 6.4.0 release.
Install a fresh 6.4.0 image which is based on MPD 0.21.16 and see if the problem remains. If it does then the cause would likely be something external to moOde software.

Okay I thought I needed the image linked by Allo. I've downloaded 6.4.0 now and did not hear any clicks or pops yet. Thanks Tim I'll report back after a few more hours of testing.

Nice :-)
The generally available moOde release from moodeaudio.org fully supports the SIG including the enhanced ASIX USB/Ethernet driver and the driver for Comfast CF-912AC Dual band WiFi adapter.

"Some hours later..."
Still no clicks and pops!
I did hear some at the default 4096 buffer. But after a few incremental steps up to 10240 it stoped and this seems to be perfect so far.

I was getting occasional clicks/pops too and found that they went away after changing the CPU governor from On-Demand to Performance. Still using default audio buffer settings.

Hi, has anyone seen tested DSD with USBridge Signature?
I have read about reproduction issues with DSD on another couple of forums I follow.

I have a few DSF64 and 128 files and no issues playing as DoP or DSD -> PCM. My rig is Shanti + SIG + Katana.
What's your rig?

Can you post the links to these forums that talk about the DSD reproduction issues?

@vmirmow ,
Thanks for pointing out the governor setting. Been listening hours without a single click or pop now.
