When playing through DirectSound in Vista/7 there is clearly some form
of peak limiter / compressor at work. As long as the music is well
bellow 0dBFS the data pass through unmodified, however as soon as the
level approaches 0dB, samples are being manipulated. I know that one can
resort to WASAPI or KS to get around this, but for the regular folk with
their Windows Media Players or iTunes - is there any way to disable this
function? Disabling effects in audio device settings does not seem to help.
Any ideas?
