Beautiful sound and beautiful design (DS-DAC-100) Even when you take your computer on a vacation or business trip, you still want easily portable high quality sound. Pack the DS-DAC-100m and your favorite headphones, and you'll be able to reproduce the pristine desktop listening environment of your home or workplace wherever you go. AudioGate 3 and DS-DAC series --- the simplest high-quality audio playback system Simply connect the DS-DAC-100/100m to your computer via USB cable, and you have a high-quality audio playback system. The system consists of AudioGate 3 software that plays back audio material from your computer with the best possible quality, together with the DS-DAC-100/100m which converts the data converted by AudioGate 3 into an analog signal for playback through your headphones or speaker system. Realtime DSD conversion for ideal sound Accurate realtime DSD-analog conversion is the secret to high-quality audio playback through headphones or your high-end audio system. Audio files such as MP3 and WAV from your computer (even a CD!) can be converted to 5.6448 MHz/DSD data in real time and played back by the dedicated AudioGate 3 software. The DS-DAC-100/100m, optimally designed for DSD, then converts the data to an analog signal for the ideal audio playback. You might even start hearing new details in your familiar CD or MP3 collection. DSD native playback of 2.8224 MHz and 5.6448 MHz DSD files KORG was among the earliest audio companies to focus on the high sound quality benefits of DSD, using DSD as the recording format for the highly acclaimed MR series of studio and field recorders. These recorders support playback not only of 2.8224 MHz DSD data but also the still higher-resolution 5.6448 MHz that is even more faithful to the original source. Dedicated driver developed specifically for the DS-DAC-100/100m To ensure trouble-free compatibility between the playback software and the DAC, we have taken advantage of our many years of experience with DSD data to create drivers that deliver stable operation and the highest-quality playback on both Windows and Mac.
