External USB DACs support for Deezer


Hello,

Saw several similar posts, but they were not created at “”Got an idea” section.

The suggestion is to implement function of Deezer player to directly connect external USB DAC’s at smartphones (bypassing the operating system mixer).

Since smartphone makers refuse using 3.5 mm mini jack, audiophiles pay attention to adapters with DAC. It’s assortment is growing - number of reviews on YouTube and feedbacks at Ali confirm this.

Streaming platforms as Tidal and Qobuz allow to output sound directly to external DAC through application “USB Audio Player Pro”. Deezer has no such function.

In my opinion implementation of this function at Deezer application itself (without workaround) will become a competitive advantage of service and will attract additional audience of audiophiles.

WASAPI Exclusive is a must for Deezer HIFI.
Agree


Exclusive mode with true bitperfect support, use ASIO drivers if possible. Tidal and Qobuz do bitperfect, come on Deezer! :)


I literally canceled my Premium subscription because this core feature is missing.  Will be back as soon as bit perfect exclusive mode is (properly) supported.


What a surprise that Deezer don't have such feature, even to have Hifi quality doesn't make sense either. I also think that you should put this on the top of your priority list, otherwise you will lose a selected top customers.


This is sound quality 101, can't wait for Spotify to go HIFI.


Same story and bump.

I’d love to recommend Deezer to myself and my friends but not when there’s no support for USB DAC like even basics Dragonfly USBs.

I’ll back with subscription when this functionality will be supported - otherwise as other said. Premium/Hifi quality is useless.


I can't believe this isn't supported?!!!! I did what a lot here did and started with deezer while keeping Spotify going for the family, to find out I can't use an external DAC seems to defeat the point of a premium service. 

Back to tidal then.


this is disappointing. over 2 years and nothing. I guess I’ll check out qobuz. it’s a shame since I really like Deezer 


I’m back to Qobuz. Deezer still doesn’t have exclusive mode feature.
