Application Software for Hi-Res Audio Playback TEAC HR Audio Player Free to download The TEAC HR Audio Player is a high-quality music playback application for Windows and Mac, with Hi-Res audio data processing capabilities including DSD 11.2MHz and PCM 384kHz/32-bit. Used in conjunction with TEAC's USB DAC, the TEAC HR Audio Player allows you to listen to Hi-Res audio without the sort of complication typical of many other music playback applications. Simply select the connected device, and drag-and-drop music files onto the window of the application. Everything is optimized for Hi-Res audio playback. The simplified screen of the TEAC HR Audio Player reduces the load on the CPU (which processes millions of calculations a second when playing back Hi-Res audio data) while the RAM Buffer Playback mode pre-loads music audio data prior to playback, further reducing the load on the CPU. It's all about the sound... ● Compatible with Windows and Macintosh computers Windows: Windows XP*1, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 Macintosh: OS X Lion (10.7), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8), OS X Mavericks (10.9), OS X Yosemite (10.10), OS X El Capitan (10.11.1) ● Compatible with TEAC UD-503, NT-503, AI-501DA, UD-501, AI-301DA, UD-301, AI-101DA, A-H01, UD-H01, and NP-H750 ● Up to DSD 5.6MHz, PCM/FLAC 384kHz/32-bit, and up to 320kbps MP3 Files Playback*2 ● ASIO 2.1 and DoP Modes for DSD 5.6M/2.8MHz Playback*2 ● DSD File Playback on Mac (DoP mode)*2 ● RAM Buffer Playback ● Repeat and Shuffle Playback Modes ● Drag-and-Drop Operation for Creating Playlist ● Save and Load Playlists ● Simplified Screen for reducing CPU load, and enhancing sound quality ● DSD File Playback on Mac (DoP mode) *1 Windows XP (32-bit) is supported on the UD-501, UD-301 and the AI-301DA. *2 DSD playback is supported on the UD-501, UD-301, and the AI-301DA. PCM 384kHz playback is supported on the UD-501. What is Hi-Res? Hi-Res audio is ultra precise digital audio data close to the original analog waveform, by digitizing the sound more frequently and more precisely. The CEA (Consumer Electronics Association) and the Japan Audio Society define products with capability of processing 96kHz/24-bit on digital audio equipment, or reproducing 40kHz or higher frequency response on analog audio equipment such as amplifier and speakers, and grants to accompany the "Hi-Res" logo with the product. The "Hi-Res" logo defined by CEA and Japan Audio Society. Hi-Res quality 192kHz/24-bit Steps (bit) CD quality 44.1kHz/16-bit Steps (bit) With the PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) format which is a major method of digitizing analog audio signal, sequential analog sound is sampled a million times in few seconds, and each sample is quantized to more than 16 million steps. Therefore, as number of samples and steps increase, the digital sound becomes closer to the original analog sound. 10 Time (kHz) Time (kHz) Let's get started Hi-Res Audio with your computer, as easy as ABC. 1 Download the App. 2 Drag-and-Drop Music Files. 3 Start Playback.
