peripheral is listed as “kernel streaming”, it will operate in Direct Sound mode when listed

here.

From now on, unless hiFace is disconnected or settings are changed again, hiFace is the

audio peripheral all audio programs will use when operating in direct sound mode.

4.1.2. Configuring for Kernel Streaming with Windows XP

Kernel Streaming has no standard setting in Windows XP. KS must be selected in the

specific player you choose to use.

For example, when using FooBar, with hiFace connected to the PC, go to the

File/Preferences/Playback /Output tab and select “KS: hiFace” as output device.

Other players will require different settings (see section 5).

4.1.3. Using hiFace in both Kernel Streaming and Direct Sound mode.

When hiFace is selected as predefined audio peripheral, it’s possible to use it in Kernel

Streaming mode, too, with a caveat. When using it in KS mode, it is necessary that no

other application accesses hiFace in DS mode. If this happens, Windows XP’s Kernel

Mixer takes control of hiFace’s driver and from then on, no KS application can access

hiFace unless the PC is restarted or hiFace connection to the PC is cycled.
