i just want to mention the possibility that this is caused by hdsp
firmware. and if it is, and you tried to ask RME about it, and told
them that you were emulating their emulation of 96kHz in your own
software, i doubt you'd get much help from them.

i cannot think of *anything* in the hdsp driver that would have any
effect on this, and i can easily imagine a situation where there was a
1 sample delay between ADAT connectors written into the
(hard|firm)ware (though it does seem unlikely). one thing, for
example, is that i know on the old digi9652, the hardware cannot
guarantee that all channels are operating at the same point in the DMA
buffer, although this should not cause the effect nick has seen.

i really encourage nick to drop (even if its only for testing) his own
double speed operation and try out RME's own stuff (implemented in
their firmware).
