You can try the latest version 2.0 beta here: [Link to v2.0 Beta 1](https://github.com/vincentneo/LosslessSwitcher/releases/tag/2.0-beta1) \n\n#### Steps\n1. Download the `.zip` file of the preferred version.\n2. Drag the app to your Applications folder.\n\nIf you wish to have it running when logging in, you should be able to add LosslessSwitcher in System Settings:\n```\n\u003e User \u0026 Groups \u003e Login Items \u003e Add LosslessSwitcher app\n```\n\n## App details\n\nThere isn\u0027t much going on, when it comes to the UI of the app, as most of the logic is to:\n1. Read Apple Music\u0027s logs to know the song\u0027s sample rate.\n2. Set the sample rate to the device that you are currently playing to.\n\n\nAs such, the app lives on your menu bar. The screenshot above shows it\u0027s only UI component that it offers, which is to show the sample rate that it has parsed from Apple Music\u0027s logs.\n\n\u003cimg width=\"252\" alt=\"app screenshot,",
