Dear Community,

I run Moode 7.3 on a RPI4B with a AlloDigione Signature HAT. My RPI is connected via RCA to an integrated stereo amp with built-in DAC.

My RPI is connected with Ethernet cable.

I have CamillaDSP active.

I stream music from an iPad or iPhone with Airplay

I'm having issues with correctly setting up CamillaDSP. I want to use filters I produced with REW, and change the balance to my right-hand speaker (I'm sitting a bit of centre).

The Quick Convolution option works fine. Airplay streaming is clear, stable and works well.

If I create a custom YML file with the pipeline editor to change the Master Gain or put in a gain in the Mixer tab then Airplay streaming becomes unstable. At each new track there is a couple of seconds of stutters. Sometime my mobile device losses Airplay connection altogether.

I don't know if I'm missing on any of the Pipeline editor parameters, is what I want even possible?

Please help in figuring out how to make everything run smoothly.

Thank you.

If it's just setting the L/R balance that causes the problem, you could do that in Alsamixer.

Hi Jonners, I need room correction (can't place my speakers in the ideal spot) so I'm relying on CamillaDSP for room correction. Is Alsamixer the Mixer tab in the Pipeline Editor?

I believe I just had a aha/eureka moment. After having read a couple of times gains should not be increased, but decreased to avoid clipping, I changed the filter to a negative value and presto, issue gone.

Thanks Jonners, appreciate the info you shared with me. See my reply below. Trial & error, seems I caused clipping and now solves.
