Galaxy S and USB Dac

Has anyone of you tried USB DACs with custom roms which support USB-OTG? If so, post brand of USB DAC, user experience and issues you may had.

why would i if the samsung galaxy S is an excellent DAC in itself..just have flash the voodoo kernel ( or a kernel with voodoo sound)..or get the voodoo app

An external DAC/AMP would be still a great option as an upgrade. Still there are better players out there. I'm also using a Sony Z walkman as portable player and its on a league of its own.

Possible that no one has used an external dac from the Galaxy S. I was thinking that all those custom roms listing this feature would have caught some interest.

USB DAC support
So, we have Jelly Bean ported for our devices. Any news about USB DAC support?
In CM10 usb dac can be detected in USB Host Controller app, but sound still plays through the rear speaker of the phone. At first I thought to change /etc/asound.conf to make sound go to the external usb dac, but it seems that this file is not used by the system at all - it can be deleted and everything works fine.

Any developments on this? I'm wondering if I can hook my old i9000 to the phono input of my Hi-Fi and play music stream via DLNA. The built in DAC is very good apparently, but If i can attach an external one, even better.

USB Audio (usb mic input)

Hello,
Has anyone been successful with USB audio with the Galaxy Note? I tried it using ParanoidAndroid rom and it seems support isnt there. Im actually surprised about this since USB Host mode is available. I tried it out using a Zoom H1 and USB Audio Tester Root app.

Not yet implement in CM10.1

Q: ext. sound card via usb OTG

Hi there
I bought the SGS1 as a nice DAP with Voodoo (SQ is awesome really) and Id like to know if it is possible to connect a USB external sound card via USB OTG to my phone. While it bypasses the internal sound card, I can still play all the music I have on the phone and its 32GB uSD via Line-out of the external sound card. Does Android 4.0> accept them via USB OTG?
Thanks

Doubt it. USB sound cards usually install driver's from the device. Doubt our phones have the relevant interface driver's. The S1 has a great built in sound card. Maybe have a look at sound mods bouncing around xda if your unhappy with the output. Im currently trying AC!D sound mod for the extra bass. But maybe Viper be a better for you. A high quality sound mod.

Hi ruben112,
I am also interested in this feature. This is my experience with it so far:

Edit:
Just noted, that this is a GT-9000 and not GT-9001 (S plus) thread. But if OTG works in general for GT-9000 the drivers should not be a problem, as USB sound cards use a generic driver (must be enabled in the kernel). What might be missing is support in your Android implementation. Android 4 at least supports it but the sound card interface implemtation has to support it too. USB-Audio worked out of the box with my Galaxy S5 mini, but no support with my S plus.

Thanks for your response. I might buy an OTG cable and see how it works out/ how far I can go.
And I already have my i9000 voodoo-ed! It's great, but it would be even better to have a true line-out facility out of our great phone

How to use usb audio?

I want to play music from my phone to my PC speakers through a USB cable connected to the PC. Is this possible? If so, how do I go about setting it up?

Unfortunately the computer is going to recognize your phone as a USB mass storage device so what you are describing isn't possible. It IS possible for you to use a media player on your computer to play the audio files stored on the phone.
USB Audio devices identify themselves as such when being plugged into a host system (Android OS, Windows, or MacOS). USB audio out is working on the Turbo, but what you describe is connecting two hosts to each other.

So is there any software setting I could change to make the turbo appear as an audio device?
