Gaming audio setups for PC, PS4, and Xbox One. Paging Bkilian.

And someone said (in this forum, I don't remember where..) the DS4's audio sampling rate would be limited to 32KHz with one user or 16KHz with 2 users.

If this is true, I wouldn't count on the DS4 for good sound reproduction.

Oh, weird. I'm gonna have to look into that.

32kHz for 2 users, 16 kHz for 3 or 4. I was hoping for binaural audio and that put the dampers on that idea.

So single user should be 44.1 kHz or higher? Or is that just 32 kHz for up to 2 users?

They said 32 kHz up to two users. There was nothing said to suggest 44.1 kHz for one user that I recall.

Seems an odd choice. Bluetooth can support 48kHz, 24bit as far as I know. The controllers are Bluetooth, aren't they?

Yes, but the DS4 isn't carrying audio alone. There's even a 2-point touchpad with a 1920*900 resolution.

The ~2Mbit/s that bluetooth can sustain may not be enough for more than those 32KHz.

Yes Bluetooth and I didn't hear anything about 44kHz too.

In fact, we know very little about PS4's user experience so far.
