## What is vPlayer HiFi?

vPlayer HiFi is a dedicated audio player for those who care about sound quality above all else.
▸ Bit‑perfect — Custom AudioUnit pipeline with hardware sample‑rate. vPlayer matches your source rate so the system never touches your signal.
▸ Native DSD Playback — DSF and DFF up to DSD512, decoded through a custom engine with 3 selectable FIR decimation filters (Steep / Gentle / Wide Bandwidth). Choose 176.4kHz or 352.8kHz output. No transcoding, no compromise.
▸ SACD-R ISO Decoder — Native Scarlet Book TOC parser. DSD64 playback with selectable decimation (176.4 kHz or 352.8 kHz).
▸ Memory Playback — Preload entire tracks into a dedicated 600 MB memory buffer — enough to hold a full CD‑length album or a high‑rate DSD track. Eliminates jitter from live file I/O.
▸ Polyphase SRC + FIR Upsampling — 6 SRC algorithms from Linear to Sinc‑512 tap with Kaiser‑windowed polyphase resampling. Independent FIR upsampling at 2× / 4× / 8× with selectable tap count (31 / 63 / 127) and homomorphic Minimum‑Phase conversion. SRC and FIR are mutually exclusive — one clean path, no double‑processing.
▸ Formats — MP3 · AIFF · M4A (Lite). Upgrade to Pro for studio‑grade WAV / FLAC / DSD (DSF, DFF) native playback.
▸ 10‑Band Graphic EQ — ±12 dB manual adjustment with per‑band reference guide. Instant response, zero latency. Toggle on/off directly from the signal chain bar.
▸ 638 AutoEq Headphone Presets — Directly load fixed‑band EQ corrections from the oratory1990 measurement database. Pick your brand, pick your model, done. Preamp is auto‑computed to prevent clipping.
▸ Parametric EQ (PEQ) — Full 10-band parametric equalizer: frequency, Q, and gain per band, with peaking, low-shelf, and high-shelf filters. Replaces the graphic EQ for surgical control. 13 Music Genre Presets — Classical, jazz, vocal, rock/pop, and folk tone shaping, crafted for vPlayer.
▸ Room EQ — Measure your room with a sine sweep and apply automatic correction, with Flat or Warm target curves.
▸ Output Covered — Built‑in speaker, wired headphones, AirPlay, Bluetooth, and external USB DAC. vPlayer detects your active route and matches the hardware sample rate automatically.
▸ Hands‑On Signal Chain — DSD · MEM · SRC ⊕ FIR · EQ · DITH. Tap any chip to open its config panel — switch DSD filters, choose SRC algorithms, set FIR parameters, adjust EQ. Real‑time route detection shows your output device.
▸ Shazam Recognition — Identify any music playing around you with one tap. Built on Apple ShazamKit.
▸ Music Painting — Generative art engine. Every track paints a unique visual — Constellation or Impression style. Save and browse your gallery.
▸ Drag album folders via Finder or iTunes to the App's sharing folder. Pull down to refresh. Swipe to delete. Folders are auto‑detected.
▸ Dual Theme — Dark & Silver. Tap the vPlayer title to switch.
