New DSD Releases

Good sounding music starts with excellent quality data.

What we do

NativeDSD provides listeners a top quality resource for DSD Stereo, DSD Binaural & DSD Multichannel music directly from Native DSD, Native DXD, Native Very High Bit Rate PCM (24 bit, 384kHz) and Analog Master Tapes transferred to DSD in Stereo, Multichannel and Binaural.

Where it comes from

The music we offer comes directly from the musicians and recording artists recording in DSD, DXD, Very High Bit Rate PCM (24 bit, 384kHz) and Analog Tape to DSD Transfers. NativeDSD will never sell upsampled PCM at bit rates below DXD (24 bit, 352.8 kHz PCM) and Very High Bit Rate PCM (24 bit, 384kHz). That’s how we make sure that you get as close to the actual performance as possible.

How we present it

You can choose to download as DXD, DSD 64, 128, 256 and in a growing number the popular DSD 512.
NativeDSD also offers Stereo, Binaural and Multichannel FLAC files. These are created from the DSD and DXD editions of these albums by BitPerfect, using their unique “Zephiir” conversion process which produces exceptionally high quality FLAC files.
