Hi there,
Currently (v7.2.1) in the MPD volume mixer there are two (besides fixed out) options for volume control:
1. Hardware
2. Software
In which, if any, cases is it preferable to use a software volume mixer to an available hardware volume control implementation?
Also, will the hardware mixer still have bit perfect audio out, or is it necessary to use the fixed out for this?
For context I'm using a Topping D30Pro USB DAC.
