Audirvana music player 0.6.1, with integer mode

New beta release of Damien Plisson's Audirvana music player for Mac OS X is the first to provide integer mode processing. From our preliminary listening session showed that it is superior to anything else we have heard. For those of you who still doubt that softwares do make a difference, download and try it for free.

The USB DACs and SPDIF converters using the Streamlength code (such as Wavelength, Ayre, and Halide Bridge) are known to provide support for integer mode which talks to the driver in the DAC native data format (e.g. 24bit signed Integer) instead of using the Apple's CoreAudio intermediary standard 32bit float format.

Still in beta stage, the open source software still have some bugs and glitches. Help report them would even make it better.

@wgscott over at computeraudiophile.com wrote a nifty Apple script to enable control of Audirvana (and Decibel) via Apple's iphone/ipad Remote app.
