Engineered for Sound Quality
Every detail of the signal path has been carefully designed for transparent, bit-perfect audio reproduction.
Bit-Perfect Playback
CoreAudio exclusive mode, integer mode output, zero resampling when not needed. Your DAC receives exactly what the file contains.

DSP Processing Chain
The signal path order matters. Headroom management prevents clipping. All processing happens at the source sample rate before upsampling, resulting in a 4x CPU reduction compared to naive implementations.
Source→Decode→Headroom→Crossfeed→Convolution→HRTF→EQ→VST3/AU→Volume Leveling→Limiter→Upsample→DAC
