When will Deezer add ASIO or WASAPI so we can have bitperfect like Tidal?

Hey again @tubeaudio 

Thanks for your support. I believe you should also vote for this idea here:

Fingers crossed 

Turns out folks have been asking for this for years, but Deezer is hiding something about their “FLAC” and won’t say what.  They just keep saying “we need more votes or we won’t offer true HiFi, just Windows Browser based audio, but pay us more and we will call it “premium”.  Then they go on about the file format being FLAC and the catalogue growing, like that has anything to do with the issue of advertising hifi without the means to connect your DAC without extra noise and sound going through the OS just because Deezer is lazy.  I wanted to like this service, I really did.

Thanks for the honest feedback @Kelimartinez I’m sorry we were unable to live up to your expectation so far.

It takes a lot more than what you may think to bring this to reality. Like in any other tech company of the same size, we need to decide where to put our resources on, and the prioritisation exercise has to be made according to demand and time/costs to develop anything further. I hope you understand there’s nothing lazy about it, we would offer the world to our users if we could develop everything at the same time, including what you’ve been wishing for all this time. I’ll forward your comments on and wish you a nice rest of the week 

Ok Rudi, would you like to go the route of false advertising then?  I get what you are saying.  Don’t pretend to cater to a certain demo when you don’t.  This service is for mobile users, or those that don’t care about HiFi, and don’t need lossless audio.  So why would you claim to offer this when your app is a web based chrome wrap with no ASIO or WASAPI?  Your responses are still just about how your hands are tied because of your size and requests.  Don’t advertise things you don’t fully support.

That's your deserved interpretation of our HiFi offer @Kelimartinez but I completely respect your feedback and your points. I'll be forwarding everything to our teams, thank you 

Hi guys :)

Please set a higher priority for this feature request. 

Then Deezer HiFi is partly a scam. Call it false advertising, whatever.

What kind of company is this, where uses have to vote for something, some kind of majority vote.

Only then if a certain mass of users reaches a critical point, the owners and highers-ups of Deezer wake up and focus their attention on it.

The only the majority is popular now? Bribery comes next?

What a stupid way of managing users feedback and needs.

This has been asked for years and is an essential party of what true HiFi actually means.

If higher-ups do not giving a thing about this (focus their attention to it) for years, I have no clue what they care about then.

Agree / I'm guessing that ASIO / WASAPI / MQA Decoder etc aren't cheap (TiDAL is like 40$ a month right??) I'm so psyched at the quality jump BUT if Apple, Amazon Music & YouTube Music (Premium) added HiFi/HD/Lossless & Spatial Audio(??) with no price increase!

Spotify was caught off guard as they were gonna do a HiFi tier; planning to gouge all prices & all the competition was like "Here & No $$$ increase" (YT Music aight as it comes with my Premium so have it if I use it or not…

Amazon hasn't wowed me but Spotify has done nada…

If Deezer is gonna be laden with issues: 1000% why I signed up! Audiophile / Sound Engineer: I thought that would come with a quality app to boot? Isn't there another HiFi service? Starts with a Q?? I think... And theres always bandcamp (download lossless to SDXC card: root I guess & use USB Audio Player Pro (paid app) or musicolet? (Maybe grab DragonFly Cobalt Amp/DAC, Mojo or iFi's Portable DAC w/ iFi USB C Dongle

LG G8 ThinQ (Factory Unlocked but the Sprint one & T Mobile nor LG aren't sending security's patches, eventually applications will nit work because you need Andriod 23 Key Lime [Hyperbole) to use them or anything!

I'm stuck on Andriod 9 - April 1st, 2019 so frustrating....and a april fools burn ontop thats just fowl, come.on now!! 

 All other carries, even consumer wireless (no hate) has Andriod 10 for this phone (tho can do more many.mire updates no issue EXCEPT  planned obsolescence 😑 & all that BS *Kill Me*

PS Yeah on my endthe fantastic Wavelet app doesn't work with Deezer (not even in Legacy Mode) I WANT TO LIKE YALL but some of this just *sigh* SMH

Harsh words I can't agree with.

A company that pools resources.

I personally find that very good. This ensures that something is developed that the masses want.

You work with assumptions. I would be very careful with that.

I think what you dismiss as stupid makes perfect sense. (Opinions can vary so much...)

Some things just take time. Deezer is a very small company in comparison and has to use and plan developer capacity sensibly.

Is someone forcing you to use Deezer? You almost act like your life depends on it. 

For a hifi plan, yeah, it’s essential to have a bitperfect desktop app. So, it’s only hifi if you play Deezer through Bluesound or other streamer that supports it.

Fellas, it’s way past due. There is no good reason why we don’t have a bitperfect desktop app. I pay more for Deezer hifi than Tidal hifi plus here, and when Qobuz becomes available (if ever) I will add Qobuz and cancel Deezer, if we don’t have a bitperfect desktop app by then.

Seriously...
