RE: Correct. But?

But I don't hear all these frequent 'vast' improvements to cPlay.

I believe you've mentioned that before. I seem also to recall that, back last summer, you had trouble getting the then-current version to work and abandoned it ("I give up"). One wonders if that and your antipathy to its author necessarily wins you a place in the ranks of objective judges of the program's merits (or demerits).

FWIW my recollection is that claims of "vast" differences between this or that version were made by their users, not their author. I found that the reported differences ranged from negligible to marked but that there was consistent progress overall. I recently compared one of the last of the first series with a recent one from the second series and it was night and day.

OK, 50-odd betas is going some but it's a hobby project, after all. What amuses me is how some criticise cMP2 with a venom normally reserved for Microsoft but seem unable to offer much to better it.


I much prefer the sound using KS with Foobar on various sound cards, choosing the best combinations of settings I find.

Which is fine. Foobar is a good program, easy to install and configure. In my setup, it's not a patch on cMP^2 but I hesitate to insist that everyone agrees with me.
