Korg continue, à rythme régulier, à mettre à jour son application de lecture de fichiers audio sous iOS : iAudiogate. Malgré son prix élevé (15€) cette application est pour moi une des meilleures notamment car elle permet de lire du DSD sur son iPhone ainsi que les fichiers HD en PCM et est compatible avec des DACs portable tel que l’OPPO HA-2. Cette compatibilité apporte un plus notamment lors de l’écoute de fichiers DSD. On peut également noter la présence d’un equalizer.
L’un des points noir était vraiment la gestion des playlists. Avec cette mise à jour de début août, ce point noir semble être levé. Je n’ai pas encore pu tester mais ca ne devrait pas tarder.
Voici la liste des mises à jours :
