Most music files have a sample rate of 44.1K (it's what CDs use) but soundcards generally play at 48K (some support higher rates). ( Default: unticked) When ticked, sound data will be resampled and output to the soundcard at the chosen sample rate. Only use this if it is not handled by your sound card. ( Default: unticked) Will convert stereo streams to surround sound. The tradeoff is more memory will be used to buffer the sound data and a little more lag will be noticeable before equalizer and DSP settings start to take effect. ( Default: unticked) Tick or adjust this setting if you notice sound stuttering during playback.

Note however you may need to disable the 'use hardware mixing' option for some older soundcards. This option is generally recommended for Vista/Windows 7 users or when your soundcard natively supports 32-bit data (however some Vista users have reported a slight sound distortion when the equalizer is used with this option enabled). ( Default: ticked) When ticked, sound data is output as 32-bit floating point numbers rather than 16-bit. ( Default: Primary Sound Driver) Select from the list of sound cards MusicBee has detected on your PC, where 'Primary Sound Driver' is the default as configured in the Windows Control Panel.
