I recently had the idea, that I would like a portable wav player , where I can store all my music projects, sketches etc.
I bought an old iPod from a friend , thinking that would do the job , but later realized that it will not play wav files , 24 bit, 48 . I always export my tracks in this format , and I am looking for an easy way to “throw together” all this material without the need of converting.
Do anyone have any suggestions ?
Someone does anything similar ?
It will have to be at least 200 gb of storage .
Maybe someone have a newer iPod , the touch or something and know it they would accept this format?
i would recommend some kind of Chinese portable hi-fi player – there is quite a few of them but i’m not sure what models are available in your region.
for instance, i use Shanling M0 Pro.
typically they use microSD cards for storage, play common lossless formats (and of course lossy ones too), and also can work as class compliant USB DACs — very handy in many circumstances.

I prefer everything about the Rockbox. The stock firmware is pretty bad. Rockbox has more options, faster boot, way way better ui, and a lot of great themes.
Just one example. In the stock firmware, if you browse to an artist, you get a list of all that artist’s songs. You can’t navigate to artist > album > song.
On Rockbox it works as it should. The only thing Rockbox doesn’t do on this device is Bluetooth, but I use wired exclusively. You can always boot back into the stock firmware if you need BT.
