Pi is not exclusive to Linux but I did say a Pi 2 so I guess that is off topic as well.:roll:
Not confused, moving on.

... I'd recommend the iMic or the Strtech 96khz sampling rate USB sound cards. They're actually quite small and light. I can't see how a Pi with a power source wound be lighter or smaller for portable use.
I would guess that DSD isn't reading the audio samples fast enough, so they're continually piling up and being discarded. Sounds like the processor can't keep up with the million cosine calculations per second that DSD grinds through while synthesizing voice.

It has a quad core processor, doesn't it? So at 70%, DSD could easily be maxing out a core and falling behind.

"you need to look at the core running dsd not the overall usage as it is single threaded"
There you go.
You can also look at the source code - there are no threads created anywhere; everything is done by the single main thread.
However, the Pi I am using is single cored and I am not exceeding 70% (see my previous post).
Your load averages are over 1.00, it is overloaded, you are wasting your time trying to get the pi to decode with DSD it doesn't have the resources.
