Can I use Symphony Desktop as a standalone unit or DAC?

As of now, Symphony Desktop requires a connection to a host device (Mac, Win 10 PC, or iOS device) via USB connection in order to pass audio. 

In addition, changing the sample rate of Symphony Desktop can only be done using the DAW or host audio application (ie., Audio MIDI Setup for Mac).

The standalone function is a feature planned in a future driver update.
