mattjtaylor2809 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Hi All, Does any know or have a promo code or coupon for any discounts of Pure Music? I've been bombarded with 15% off offers etc.. from Audirvana & Amarra but I don't recall anything from Channel-D? Cheers all Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhakPak Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 ...speaking of Pure Music, is anybody using it? I downloaded the free trial version yesterday and installed it on my MacBook Air but can't get it to work with the DAC. The DAC is appearing in the Mac OSX environment as an audio output device, so the computer and DAC are talking to each other over USB, just can't get it to play. The DAC isn't engaging in DSD mode, and Pure Music won't get out of pause mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattjtaylor2809 Posted September 25, 2013 Author Share Posted September 25, 2013 Hi Brodricj, I thought PM was the "best" of the music players (which is very subjective I know...) but I couldn't justify the price & have settled on Audirvana+. I did have problems with PM though; at the start of each track I would have about 1/2 second of white noise which was quite loud, annoying & I was worried it could damage my speakers. I know this hasn't answered your question, hopefully someone will. Cheers Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhakPak Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 After 3 days with PM I've abandoned it, way too buggy. I'm only using it to associate FLAC and DSD files with the iTunes playlist. I'm now using A+, much much more robust than PM, except for getting content into iTunes. As far as I can tell PM isn't compatible for DSD playback on the Matrix X-saber DAC because neither of the DSD flag setup options will get the DAC in DSD mode. A+ is not "plug-n-play" for DSD on the Matrix either, you need to change the audio setup to "DSD over PCM" for it to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
