DIY Audio Analyzer with AK5397/AK5394A and AK4490

A new firmware V1.19 is available for download on the RTX download page.

It solves the issue reported in post #2107 where the most negative value would create distortion. Thanks zfe for reporting this. I managed to reproduce it, but it took some effort to do so. Using your file and ASIO output did the trick.

The new firmware also improves the overflow indication
 
Download the zip file and unpack it to a folder on your Windows PC (sorry, Windows only).
Connect the RTX6001 to the PC.
Run the rtxusbaudioDfu.exe program.
Click "Browse" and locate the RTX6001_i2o2_V0119.bin file.
Click on the file and press "Open".
Click the "Start" button and wait for the programming to happen. Will only take a few seconds.
When finished, press "Exit".

Optionally you can also install the RTX6001_v1.19.exe control program. This program allows you to monitor and control the settings from the PC. Earlier versions will also work with the new firmware.
 
I have used Reaper and its not that onerous to use until you are doing some complex tasks. I know it sees a lot of use on major projects and some Grammy winning projects as well.
Reaper here. Some people love it and others.. I'm in the middle. It has stuff all over the place where you don't expect however it is extremely resource efficient and very stable. 2 handy traits.
All the DAW's have steep learning curves. They are like major CAD systems.
CAD systems have gotten a lot better. I used I-DEAS (the predecessor to Unigraphics) for a few years professionally and it took almost a year to get my head around it. A very stressful year. Solidworks / Solidedge are like a breath of fresh air in comparison to all above programs. Very intuitive.

Any news on how update the firmware without a Windows machine?
 
You can use it with Windows/MAC/Linux, but you only need the Thesycon driver for Windows. Once Windows gets full support for UAC2 the driver shouldn't be necessary. Win10 does have some support. I haven't really followed it closely, but as I understand it, there is some support for playback, but not for recording.

I am not sure if the DFU protocol is documented (generally available).

Hi Jens,

Ok, I will try Google later. If it's documented we could likely whip up an python script reasonably easy.
