Hi.
A comment to the Audiophonics Sabre 9028 DAC. Audiophonics offers a custom standalone driver. It's done the same way as it is done now with the Katana DAC. They have a MCU onboard that's being controlled by the driver and that MCU controls the Sabre chip. Audiophonics doesn't have the skills, the interest or business case to get the driver integrated into the kernel. I actually integrated the driver into the kernel for myself and offered them a patch. They were not interested! Fair enough. Bottom line. Before buying a potentially quality DAC always have a look at the driver situation! If you're happy with the Sabre HW mode, that DAC obviously works with this or that standard I2S driver. Allo shows how it's done professionally. The Katana driver is fully integrated and available in the RPI kernel since weeks. Long before the DAC is even launched. Enjoy. :::' my audioblog - latest series: RaspBerry PI - \"The Audio Engine\" ' (http://soundcheck-audio.blogspot.com)::: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ soundcheck's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=34383 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108852 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
