peripheral is listed as “kernel streaming”, it will operate in Direct Sound mode when listed
here.
From now on, unless the Young is disconnected or settings are changed again, Young is
the audio peripheral all audio programs will use when operating in direct sound mode.
6.1.2. Configuring for Kernel Streaming with Windows XP
Kernel Streaming has no standard setting in Windows XP. KS must be selected in the
specific player you choose to use.
For example, when using FooBar, with Young connected to the PC, go to the
File/Preferences/Playback /Output tab and select “KS: M2Tech 384/32 DAC” as output
device. Other players will require different settings (see section 7).
6.1.3. Using Young in both Kernel Streaming and Direct Sound mode.
When Young is selected as predefined audio peripheral, it’s possible to use it in Kernel
Streaming mode, too, with a caveat. When using it in KS mode, it is necessary that no
other application accesses the Young in DS mode. If this happens, Windows XP’s Kernel
Mixer takes control of Young’s driver and from then on, no KS application can access the
Young unless the PC is restarted or the Young connection to the PC is cycled.
