Presenting VB-Audio Hi-Fi Cable & ASIO-Bridge: Credits to this post (Swedish) from back in 2016.

Today I finally found a solution and I wanted to share. I've spotted a few threads on Reddit where people have been discribing a problem similar to mine. For the past few months I have been on the lookout for alternatives to Fidelify without much success. However, official support for libspotify has been depreciated since 2015 and sometime during this fall (2018) Fidelify finally stopped working. For the longest time there has been numeral request on the official Spotify forums for implementation of either ASIO or WASAPI as a way to bypass the Windows software mixer but status has been " Not right now" since forever (2012).įor many years the unofficial 3rd party client Fidelify sorted this issue by allowing either WASAPI or ASIO using libspotify.

In my experience the Windows software mixer adds a distinct and very audible coloration of sound that to my knowledge can only be bypassed by using either ASIO or WASAPI.
