From Control Panel -> Audio select the
hiFace DAC
in the “Playback” tab and then
choose Properties. This windows also allows you to set
hiFace DAC

device, which is mandatory when user needs to use
hiFace DAC
to listen to Youtube files
audio and other streaming sources (Figure 12).
Select the Advanced tab, from the drop down window choose the desired audio sample
rate and then try it out: you should hear a bell ringing in your system’s speakers.
Also check the Exclusive Mode acces boxes. In this way the running player will take the
exclusive access to the device, ensuring high end performance. Warning: this modality is
not appropriate for the shared access, for instance when user sets
hiFace DAC
as the
default output audio device: in this case, multiple access would be desirable.
