Review seems awesome:

If I did not already have the KORG I would jump on it.  MINIDSP has a totally stellar reputation in the digital processor community...

I had 32gig ram in the machine so I doubt the glitches were due to a ram issue.  I think processing power or some windows sound vs. KORG driver issue, or maybe even USB bandwidth issue.
Does seem like most- or all - of these issues could be avoided when proprietary driver is not needed.

For example, this is a brand new ADC, with digital phono EQ built in, and review was awesome:

Paul,

8.  VinylStudio will then copy the file across the network, resulting in a copy on the processing PC (which is what you want).[/url]

Step 7b
I like to set the option to combine multiple files into ONE file It's directly under the option to "Copy files to recording folder". This makes for a very large file, but it's never been a problem Windows 10.

It just seems easier to keep track of my albums in the recording folder this way.

Respectively I've had a different experience.

I'm not having a problem with it eating up ram, the most I saw just now while recording DSD1128 was 146 MB.

I can't say for sure I've had Firefox open in the past 3 years while recording, but I've not noticed any skips.

Also on Windows 10 and 32MB ram and I7-8 core. It's running  my surveillance  software "Blue Iris" 24/7. After a reboot I have 202 processes running.

How much ram is yours using and number of processes?

 The drivers however are a resource hog on Windows 10.  If I open a browser while ripping to DSD, I can get glitches (I7-12 core with 32 gig ram).
The DAC does make excellent DSD rips and the headphone amp sounds fine also.  Just wish the proprietary KORG windows drivers were less of a hog.
If I had to do it again, I would buy and external ADC like the musicians use for recording...

Thanks Paul. My issue is that I'm not changing that setting between recordings, it seems to be a random thing. Let me do some more observation to get you better details.

Hi,

If you look in the Lookup Track Listings dialog, you will see there is a box labelled 'Auto adjust track breaks'.

If you check it then VinylStudio will attempt to position the track break markers at breaks in the music.  If you don't, it won't.
