New dCS Puccini 1,21 version

Info I got from dCS today:

What’s new in v1.21?

The new software adds some useful new features to the Puccini Player. The new features added since v1.12 are:

1. In addition to the 4 DSD filters, this release adds a choice of 3 DSP filters when playing CDs or receiving 44.1kS/s data. These are:

“Classic” (the same as the original filter),

“Long” (a symmetrical filter with improved anti-imaging performance) and

“Asymmetric” (an apodising filter with a similar frequency response to the “Long” filter but with no pre-ringing).

When changing filters using the remote control, the MUTE button flips between setting the DSD filter (if available) and setting the DSP filter.

2. The performance in DSD mode has been improved.

3. Occasional problems with the Display-Off timeout have been corrected.

WOW ! Cannot wait !

Asymmetric (Asym on display) filter raises the redbook performance to new level.

Elberoth2,
Was there an update on the release date - like, much sooner than next year?

I was told in November.

hi Elberoth,
can you please elaborate on point 2: "The performance in DSD mode has been improved" ? do you know how?
thank you!
