HQ Player I have a confession


rapp

Recommended Posts

Hi All

Am thinking of getting HQ Player (I have used Pure Music for a long time). My confession is that having just read through the manual, I didn't really follow it very well. It's obviously immensely powerful software. And judging from the manual it's not meant to be set-and-forget. Are there folks out there, like me, who aren't really versed in this stuff who successfully use HQplayer? Is there a friendlier manual out there somewhere to help users like me get the most out of the software?

Many thanks

Steven

 

There's a bit of a learning curve and then it can be set and forget. Depends on you.

 

I played with some different choices of filters and modulators and it quickly became apparent what i prefered. Now I just stick with that.

 

Some users change filters acc'd to the type of music; that is too fiddly for me - I just use what "generall sounds best to me" and forget about it. I occasionally experiment, especially if a new filter is added. But for me it is basically set and forget.

Main listening (small home office):

Main setup: Surge protector +>Isol-8 Mini sub Axis Power Strip/Isolation>QuietPC Low Noise Server>Roon (Audiolense DRC)>Stack Audio Link II>Kii Control>Kii Three (on their own electric circuit) >GIK Room Treatments.

Secondary Path: Server with Audiolense RC>RPi4 or analog>Cayin iDAC6 MKII (tube mode) (XLR)>Kii Three .

Bedroom: SBTouch to Cambridge Soundworks Desktop Setup.
Living Room/Kitchen: Ropieee (RPi3b+ with touchscreen) + Schiit Modi3E to a pair of Morel Hogtalare. 

All absolute statements about audio are false :)
