Hello,
I'm currently using a FiiO Q1 USB DAC with my Moto G 3rd gen (Android 6.0.1) and I've been experiencing some cracking on some files I have, mostly flac, with Poweramp alpha-build-703-play.
This happens with both the AudioTrack Output and Hi-Res Output. OpenSL ES Output seems fine, but volume output is way lower and it's limited to 16bits/48kHz, so why bother... It doesn't matter if the built-in DSP is on or off.
When it happens, the crackling is repeated for a certain period of time depending on the track, it isn't really obvious when playing the track, but when there's little to no sound at the end or beginning of a track, I can hear it clearly at normal volume, and it's really annoying.
At first I thought that this was caused by signal interferences from my Wifi or 4G, which would be odd considering the Q1 is supposed to solidly prevent this. But listening to the same track over and over again, the crackling happens everytime at the same time, in the same manner. It's not a random artifact.
I know for a fact that the cause of this cannot be from my DAC, USB cable, headphones, audio cable or files... I use my setup on my PC with Winamp with an ASIO plugin and on my phone with Hiby Music, and everything works just fine.
Also I've left the Resampler with default settings.
Any solution or any plans on fixing this ?
I hope I've been clear enough describing this issue.
