Loading Comments The problem I have with Hysolid is that the app to control it does not work on Android anymore, so it is unusable for me. Also if you look on the developers site the last update is from years ago. It does not seem that it is still in active development. I jumped in and bought 3. Damien and the team should have looked at bringing existing customers in from the outset.

Also, there could have been a more generous inducement for existing customers who have 3. I fear Audirvana may lose a large part of its core following as a result. I chose Audirvana 7 years ago for the following reasons: 1. Audirvana was one of the few applications that offered the quality features that critical and analytical listeners place special value on, and at a comparably low price.

Audirvana was specifically geared towards the needs of this audiophile audience and not towards mass consumption and mainstream. Audirvana was and is not only an excellent software audio player for high-resolution audio files including multichannel and gapless support as well as loudness normalization, but also offers powerful management functions for your own music collection with support for complex metadata.

The support of plug-ins, for example for stereo or surround to binaural converters, head trackers, correction filters, etc. In the meantime this also works with “SoundSource” under macOS All of this had strengthened my confidence in Audirvana. Maximum musical enjoyment not only requires the highest technical quality, but is also a special challenge for musicians, producers and listeners: 1.

Musical excellence can be found less often in mainstream productions because they are oriented towards quick profit, 2. Be careful if you have a 2. This will restore access to the audio device to other applications and allow your computer to go into standby mode. If another application still tries to send sound during playback, macOS will try to find another available audio device for it.

Note: The Airplay device can be hidden. To get it back, hold down Option and click on the loudspeaker icon on the menu bar. Select Airplay in the selection menu that appears. To prevent this from happening, exit other memory-hungry applications e. This is probably due to setting you put for upsampling. It is quite possible these audio files do not have the metadata tags that would have enabled them to be correctly catalogued and found easily.

In this case, they appear with only a title that is their filename. In album view, files without metadata are grouped by folder, which are then displayed as albums. You probably have a pre Mac. First make sure that your Mac and your network drive are connected to the same local network, with no router in between.

Windows or MacOS then tries to find another available audio device. Since the 1. This can be configured in the audio Signal Processing section on the audio preferences page. This gives access to the large number of EQ, room correction, headphone crossover filters available on the market including the one that are already in your Mac.

Free Trial. Audirvana Studio is primarily a third-party player. If you have your own music library as I do, the best options at the moment are Roon and Plex. Both offer a well-designed interface and powerful tools to manage your library. And, to this day, no other options gave me the same level of refinement when sorting my movies and series. Sure, Plex also sorts my music but as good as it is, the sort engine remains sub-optimal, compared to Roon. A nerdy guy with a passion for audio and gadgets, he likes to combine his DAC and his swiss knife.

He likes spreadsheets, technical specs and all this amazing ly boring numbers. But most of all, he loves music: electro, classical, dubstep, Debussy : the daily playlist. A followup review by the author of, Audirvana Studio, working in conjunction with the Dirac Live 3 room-correction software would be greatly appreciated.

Then, I learned that Roon does not perform well that way. Once I learned how to deploy Roon properly, I found that it sounds as good or better than Audirvana, depending on the network bridge.

Audirvana is a computer audio system. I will therefore only say that MQA does some magic to even old recordings and it can make albums sound better than their original!

How can this be you might ask, a new version of something can never be better compared to the Master tape of the studios. Heureka, now it can. It can remove some digital fingerprint on music! This is only one example how MQA works under the hood. Thumbs up for this dear Damien – you sure are way ahead of many others some mentioned the California-based Fruit Company? Stuart can be read at: link. And also the streaming service Tidal now streams MQA music. The latter is quite interesting because the music lover maybe doesn’t want to buy every album a second time just because the MQA flag is up.

Personally I hate suscription models, it is the same with Lightroom. You have hassle all the time with the logins, and at the end you pay more than before. I think some bugs should be fixed in 3. The sound quality or more features is of course not necessary. However, if there are issues with Windows or Android remotes. They said that within a few weeks they will release a new remote that will function both with A 3.

Hope they work on a few of the small perfomance issues. Hate to see people who just bought the 3. So, I start a post and receive replies, but I get exactly 1 Like on the original post.

Audirvāna Assistance – customer support and community forum

 
Where can I download the Remote application? Damien Plisson and his team have added numerous new features to the player software, turning it into Audirvana Studio — and changed the business model to be subscription-based. A truth, another. In my system Audirvana sounds better then Roon too. The reactions were already negatives at the moment of the presentation of Audirvana Studio on Facebook. How does that work?

I enjoyed your review, but I wish you had provided more detail on how you set up Roon and compared an optimal Audirvana configuration to an optimal Roon installation. But the sound quality is just gorgeous. The heart of our technology and product value precisely consist in making the most of these environment to guarantee the best possible audio playback quality and customer experience. I’ve been using Audirvana since the get-go but am likely to skip this version unless it’s earthshatteringly great — or, at least functional.
