Evening all could somebody tell me please im currently using Musicbee only found out about it just recently. Im using a MF V90 dac which is connected to my Ruarks and the dac is connected to my PC via USB now the settings in Musicbee in the player settings i have WASAPI - DirectSound and ASIO which would give me the better sound quality would i better use WASAPI over DirectSound?

Can someone help me please when im playing my music on MusicBee player when i have the volume to where i want it when i skip forward on the player the music goes very loud when i resume any ideas why this is ive looked in settings and cannot see anything that might be causing this. Should it be doing this? Currently using WASAPI never did this in DirectSound
