Dirac Live Active Room Treatment

Dirac Live Beta 3.10.1
2024-05-22

Changes listed are relative to the latest public stable release.

New features

• Improved the measurement qualification algorithm to more reliably detect occasional data loss in the recording.

• Logging Operating System version number information to correlate with measurement problems.

• To improve the quality of measurements with microphones connected to Windows PCs, "WASAPI Exclusive Mode" will be activated by default in some cases.

• To control whether "Exclusive Mode" is used or not in your case, and thereby override the default behavior, please follow these steps:

1. Click the Windows button, type “env”, and hit Enter.

2. Click the "Environment Variables..." button.

3. Click the "New..." button under "User variables for <user>" (or select DAUDIO_WASAPI_NON_EXCLUSIVE and click “Edit…” if it already exists).

4. Enter the following:

   • Variable name: DAUDIO_WASAPI_NON_EXCLUSIVE

   • Variable value:
     “OFF” to enable Exclusive Mode
     “ON” to disable Exclusive Mode (the old behavior)

5. Click "OK".

6. Restart the Dirac Live application, and verify that it is possible to complete a calibration.

Bug fixes

• Fixed a system error when modifying large ART projects.

• Fixed a crash on Windows and Mac if microphone access has not been granted by the user when entering the Select Microphone view.

• Fixed a problem where the WAV file dump of the last recording was clipped due to conversion to fixed point - it now supports floating point data.

• Several minor UI glitches were fixed on both desktop and mobile app versions.

Known issues

• Filter export to devices from Onkyo/Integra/Pioneer take longer time than usual.
