As above, mixed results Some mp3's I could not play, which were at 22050 Hz sampling rate, and others, at 44100 Hz and above, I could. This suggests that you need to be able to upsample to make some files play. I noticed you removed some sample rate conversion options from the ASIO plugin's dialog. The versions that could resample did work for me, as well; when I either resampled to a sample rate my driver could use, or had a file I could use. I was not able to get your version, which has had the resampling ripped from it, to work on 22050 Hz files, whatsoever; although, as I say, I could get older versions which could resample to 44.1 kHz to work on those files.



It appears that is what is needed, is to bring back the resampling options; but to have an additional option to say, "Upsample Lower Sample Rates Only". That way, you could set it to your lowest supported sampling rate, say 44.1 kHz, and anything that is slower will get upsampled so it would play; but things at higher sample rates would play at their superior quality rates as well. Better yet, might be a user-editable list of supported sample rates, which anything that wasn't on it would get upsampled if possible, or downsampled if required, so it would play. Maybe you could query the ASIO driver for such a list of supported rates; and resample accordingly, without additional user GUI.



As to the volume control, it would be nice if you could get the main one running. As a next best thing, I noticed that the "Preamp" vertical slider on the graphic equalizer DOES work. The downside of that, is that it only goes up or down +/- 12 dB, so you might not be able to get something as loud or as quiet as you'd like.



I'm using the native ASIO driver for a Presonus FP10, a low end professional audio unit. It can play DVD quality audio, which is to say, 96 kHz, and it does not choke on 192 kHz BlueRay audio. It must downsample that on the fly; although it can really play and record at 96 kHz. Your plugin works great, when it does work, as above. I'm really grateful that somebody is still working on it. Keep up the good work!
