Hi. I would be happy to see asio and wasapi support in your windows desktop app. Tidal has this function and in my opinion it really smoothens sound and makes quality slightly better.

Hi All, is https://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/WDM_Driver an option in the meantime to bypass Windows audio stack? I am sure there are other WDM drivers out there as well. Trialing at the moment.

Please add WASAPI Exclusive/ASIO support

Please never support the industry leech that is MQA

I just started a 2 months trial (just to test integration with Google Home) and was thinking I might stay on it if sound quality was there and that I would stop using Qobuz. Then, I immediately realized that there’s not option to select wasapi exclusive output on desktop… This has to be a joke when they advertise than sound is “hi-fi quatity” and whatever other lies they write (“ as if you were right in the recording studio”, “crystal clear music on your home sound system”, blah, blah, blah). I guess I’ll stick to Qobuz then.

Please add WASAPI Exclusive/ASIO support.

Using Deezer HIFI doesn’t make a sense without bit-perfect function!

I also miss the ASIO capability in Deezer.

That’s one of the biggest stepping stones for Deezer to became the best streaming service out there.

You added connect function, now add WASAPI and it will be great. I use a MINI-PC and then a DAC, so this solution will be optimal.

I see no reason to upgrade to hifi tier without wasapi and asio support
