Centrance DACmini not seen as an audio output device - why?

Post by Trismos » Sat Sep 13, 2025 3:42 pm

Hello

I have several different audio devices hooked up to my Windows 10 PC including an 18i20, Apollo Twin, and a Centrance DACmini. For Ableton I normally use the Apollo.
The Centrance I usually use with J-River Media Center through a Woo Audio W6SE headphone amp. Media Center see's this DAC and in brackets shows it as [Kernel Streaming]. Ableton does not see this DAC at all, anywhere (ASIO or MME/DirectX). I would very much like the option to hear mixes with the Centrance / headphone amp for comparisons sake (just like I listen to my mixes with different headphones as well as my monitors).

Any thoughts on the matter would be appreciated,
