hi Everyone!
I'm evaluating Voicemeeter Banana as a parametric EQ (room modes correction) in my stereo playback system, where the source is based on Windows11 PC with Tidal and Jriver applications installed. My intention is to reduce to minimum digital signal resampling, ideally to obtain original soundtrack sample rate and bit depth to be received by the DAC. (signal path: Tidal/Jriver -> Banana -> DAC -> ...).
Is this the way Banana works, passing the original samples to output, or does it resample to base frequency set under Menu->System Settings?
My observation of DAC input indicates the latter.
Could you please advice how it works and advise if automatic switch of main sample rate in Banana is possible at all?
The attached screen shows a possible scenario: a 96/24 track being played from Tidal to Voicemeeter Banana set to 48/? (bit depth unknown).
In this scenario I can manually select 96kHz in Banana's system settings, however the downside is necessity to adjust it for any given track.
thank you for help!

Re: Automatic switch of Banana main sample rate
Voicemeeter VAIOs samplerate is set by Voicemeeter and is given by the main audio stream (output A1 device).
So you may configure Voicemeeter to run audio engine in 96kHz to get the best sound for 96kHz sources
and for 48kHz sources, the 96 kHz conversion is surely the less annoying.

Re: Automatic switch of Banana main sample rate
thank you for reply. so you're saying that 48->96 is a breeze. What about 44.1-96? Is that something that Banana does in meticulous way?

Re: Switch Sample rate from 44.1 to 48 in Coconut
I would be very grateful if somebody could help me understand how to switch sample rates in Coconut. I need to switch from 44.1 to 48. There must be a dropdown menu but I can't find it.
Thank you.
Thank you.
