Are there any plans to integrate your drivers into free programs like Runeaudio or similar? To me, that would be ideal.

As a Squeezelite user would love to see it integrated into SoA (Squeeze on Arch). However integration into the Linux kernal used in Arch would do the trick.
With an HDMI touch screen, or one of the LCD touch capes, it shouldn't be hard to do, though you might need to play with different distros/UIs.
If working input(s), that can be stably mixed, can be gotten out of this, I'll be
(g_audio has not worked out, thus far, and I'd just as well use one of the I2S lines as input, with an ASRC slaved to the BBB, if possible).I wonder how hard it would be to just use the sources from the Botic image to build a kernel for Arch? On x86, that sort of thing is very easy to successfully do, and Arch is very forgiving when it comes to different kernel sources, but I don't know about semi-proprietary ARM SoCs, especially if it fails (can you even get a boot menu, like GRUB's, on the BBB?). I've been sticking with everything I can manage being precompiled, so far.
No. Daphile is x86 only ...
unless you rebuild the Daphile kernel, yourself, using miero's sources.

That´s a very interesting question. Maybe is the better chance to solve DSD stereo play in dual-mono.
Brian & Russ, as you both know, to play DSD in stereo is neccesary to remap the inputs externally.

How would one add some other spdif or i2s source?
As it is seen on the pictures the cronus uses all of the BIIIse input pins (6).
Where would I connect my 4:1 mux or any other spdif source.
The same question is for a second i2s source or otto2?
thx

I would be grateful if someone could answer a couple of questions on the Cronus module:
Can it send data synchronously to Buffalo?
What's the frequency of the two clock onboard?
Thanks.

You will need to remove Trident for B3 clock and feed masterclock signal from Cronus to B3 for that.
> What's the frequency of the two clock onboard?
Which combination would you prefer?
a) 22579200 + 24576000
b) 45158400 + 49152000

Miero brings up a nice feature of the Cronus. Clock modules can be changed. 🙂 Also one can choose a higher speed clock than needed (say 45/49Mhz) and divide by 2 or 4 into the source if needed.

Obviously the couple with the lower phase noise (usually but not always the lower frequency one).
By the way if I had to choose 22579200 + 24576000 there might be some problem with the files more "exotic" i.e. DXD, DSD128, DSD256 etc. ?
This mostly depends on the connected DAC.
For example these are ES9018 requirements:
- 192*fs for PCM => ~74MHz for 384kHz
- 386*fs for SPDIF => ~74MHz for 192kHz
- 3*fs for DSD

Boards are in
We will be testing extensively in the next couple weeks and hopefully releasing everything soon.

A year in the making, and a lot of exposue on this thread; I hope you guys have enough boards in stock to satisfy the hungry mob 😀
