To transfer the metadata you set in AudioGate v2.3 to AudioGate 3
When you associate text data (such as titles or album names) and/or art-work with a song in AudioGate v2.3, it is saved in a song list file (with extension agsl). When you drag & drop the list of these songs in AudioGate 3 and register ("Add Audio File" is also available), all the metadata is imported as well. It is not necessary to export again for formats that do not support metadata, such as WAV and DSDIFF.

I want to use the DS-DAC to play audio from iTunes or YouTube
Windows
If you want system sounds and audio from iTunes or YouTube to be output via the DS-DAC, select the "Korg USB Audio Device Driver" as the "Default device" in Windows.
First, in the DS-DAC control panel's [Driver] tab, set the Mode to PCM. Then, right-click the speaker icon at the lower right of the screen, and choose [Playback (P)].
Mac OS X
System Preferences -> Sound -> Output, or alternatively you can adjust these settings in Applications -> Utilities -> "Audio MIDI Settings" -> "Audio Devices" tab.

I want to use the DS-DAC with WASAPI
When using AudioGate we recommend that you choose ASIO since you won't need to switch between DSD and PCM; however, since the DS-DAC supports WDM, you can use this if the player you're using supports WASAPI.

Can I connect the DS-DAC to an audio amp?
You can connect the analog output jacks to your audio amp. Since the output level is fixed, use the controls of your amp to adjust the output volume. In cases when you are using a device such as active monitor speaker and it is difficult to adjust the output volume, you may use the master volume in AudioGate 3. But it is not bit perfect then.

Troubleshooting
Known problems and limitations
- As of June, 2015, the following limitation on the operating environment exists; we plan to address and correct this.
* Mac OS X Gatekeeper is not supported.
If an application using the DS-DAC (such as AudioGate) is running, close the application, and then wait until “Ready” or “Stopped” appears in the lower-right corner of the Control Panel. In addition, if it is set to output system sounds, do not output sounds until the update is completed. No sound will be outputted from the DS-DAC if it is deselected as the default device in the Sound settings of Windows, or if the internal speakers are selected in System Preferences -> “Sound” -> “Output” tab or Applications -> Utilities -> “Audio MIDI Settings” -> “Audio Devices” tab on a Mac. The settings can be reverted after the update is completed.
When you playback AAC or ALAC with Windows PC, the sampling frequency may not change if you set ASIO for driver type, and “KORG USB Audio Device Driver” for driver name in the Preference window.
In this situation, please set a standard audio device for the default device with Control Panel of Windows, instead of “KORG USB Audio Device Out L/R”.

During real-time conversion playback using AudioGate
In order to perform all real-time conversion processing at “high quality,” the system performance must be equivalent to a Core 2 Duo 2.66 GHz or better. The CPU processing load will be particularly high for conversion playback to 5.6 MHz. In such cases, you can export the data beforehand to create a DSD file for playback, or use the “low load” setting.
When using a laptop computer
Even if the CPU performance is high, noise may occur if the power-saving settings are enabled. Change the power plan in “Power Options” of the “Control Panel,” and also turn off any other power saving plan that is specific to your computer.
