help with set up
« on: 17 Apr 2017, 11:54 pm »
Hey. i just received my Lampi Atlantic, DSD only w/512, balanced, tube rectified. I run Roon and HQP on a Sonore Sonictransporter (Windows 10 server, i7, quad core, purpose bout for HQP and Roon). I have downloaded the Asio drivers and both HQP and Roon see the device.

I initially set the HQP settings for DSD 512 as I have read described on-line. I enabled HQP on Roon. Will not play music.

I figured just using Roon would be easier. I enabled the Lampi (Combo 384 ASIO 1,03) under "Connected to this PC". Set settings to play dsd. No sound. Get message -"playback error input device init failed."

Any ideas on why this won't work?

Hi John,

Did you try pressing the front button in?

Best,
Rob

I have pushed it a couple of times. When I do, the light does not change. Makes me think it is not doing anything.

What does the button do?

Pressed in, it will activate your DSD 512.

OK, that is what i thought. However, as I said, the light never changes. And, it does not work even after pushing.

Only trying 256 with Roon as that is all it will handle.

There's a lot of variables there and a lot of opportunity for something not to be checked right. Maybe try computer with HQplayer direct to the DAC?

Definitely a lot of variables. The server (Sonictransporter) is plugged directly into dac. HQP and Roon both see it.

I assume it is a setting issue. However, that is why I tired to get it up and running on Roon ,which is easier to set up,. However, as I mentioned, I get an error there as well.

Was indeed a setting issue with ROON. Glad we worked through that pretty quickly :thumb:

OK. I have it up and running on Roon. Need to select native dsd instead of dsd over pcm. Still trying to get HQp to play.

Rad! I knew that Berto guy could get it figured out. I have my Big 7 getting upgraded to 512 as we speak, so keep watch for my "need help" posts.

No doubt. The dac is plug and play (and mighty awesome thus far), but the software is not.
