43ASUS Xonar Essence ST
I found no sound effects when playing 96K or 192KHz sound sources.
Currently, Xonar Essence ST effects including Dolby, supports common
44.1K, 48KHz sound sources processing and provides high-denition
audio (96K/192KHz) in hi-delity playback. This is also usually the
behavior that professional audiophiles and musicians prefer.
If you still want to add effects to your audio, you can use sound editing
software such as Ableton Live, Cakewalk, CoolEdit, or Soundforge to
convert the sounds into 48KHz les.
3. Note that the frequency meter on the Xonar Essence ST Audio Center panel
will not take effect when the playback source is using either a 96KHz or
192KHz sample rate to prevent any processing distortion.
