For each combination of sampling rates, filter coefficients have been carefully designed with optimal values and have already earned a high degree of respect in the professional mastering workplace. The design of the sample rate conversion filter built into AudioGate takes into account the tonal character heard via the final playback from the hardware, including the characteristics of the A/D and D/A converters themselves. KORG's products are developed by world-class audio engineers with an exhaustive knowledge of digital audio. *DSD playback via the lite version will be converted to 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz PCM for playback For details on the models supported by the lite version and for more about authentication, refer to the separate 'Read Me' document.

The lite version can be upgraded to the full version by connecting a DS-DAC series or MR series unit for license authentication, so you'll be able to smoothly take advantage of the full functionality when you purchase one of these products after trying the lite version.

*After downloading AudioGate, connect the DS-DAC series or MR series unit and perform the license verification procedure so that you can use the software as a licensed version. It has been reborn as the software at the core of KORG's audio HD playback solution. AudioGate 4 has been completely updated adding numerous functions and also heightening interoperation with KORG's DS-DAC series. Today, it has grown beyond its origin as KORG's bundled software, and has earned the support of many users around the world. Try selecting different curves in AudioGate 4 and enjoy the resulting changes in tonality.īorn as an audio format conversion application, AudioGate was originally developed to convert recordings made on KORG’s MR Series recorders, then manage and play them on computers. Since the curve is not indicated on the records themselves, it’s not possible to know which curve was used to record a given record however it is said that nearly all records can be covered by the RIAA curve and five other curves. It became a standard in 1954, but prior to that date there was no standardization between the various record labels. RIAA is the standard recording/playback equalization curve for records defined by the Recording Industry Association of America. However on the DS-DAC-10R, the amplification is handled by an analog circuit and the equalization is separately performed using digital signal processing (within AudioGate 4). This compensation is applied by the “phono equalizer.” Since record players have a lower output level in comparison to most audio devices, it is necessary to boost the signal, and the phono equalizer typically performs this role as well. For this reason, the record being cut is equalized to attenuate the low-frequency range and boost the high-frequency range, and the opposite curve is applied during playback. The record lathes used in the process of producing vinyl records cut a wider groove as the frequency of the sound becomes lower this makes it difficult for the needle to accurately trace the groove during playback, and also decreases the recording time. This versatile cutting-edge technology lets you appreciate the true power of vinyl records in a way until now impossible-even on high-end audio equipment. Phono equalization can be applied as you record, or when playing back an un-equalized DSD recording made from your vinyl sources. In addition to the standard RIAA curve, five other curves (*3) are also supported. The DS-DAC-10R contains a DSD phono equalizer that restores all of the sound that went into cutting the record, while minimizing any effect of the equalization process used to cut the original vinyl record.
