Bzzz. Wrong. "Asynch" in USB has nothing to do with the bit clock - it has to do with the timing of higher-level data blocks. > Oh, I missed the second part of your question - asynchronous sample rate > converters have nothing to do with asynch USB - digital audio basics 101 And you would be well advised to read that 101. Most modern commercial DAC chips use an ASRC that isolates the incoming bit clock from the audio clock - independent of the asynchronous or isochronous nature of the actual USB interface. > How many use a separate independent clock, I'm unsure but my USB devices > do & any devices using the XMOS chip also do And no ASRC? jkeny wrote: > > julf wrote: > > So how about explaining your actual position regarding ABX?> > > > Nope, it's just a deflection from oe of the army of measurebators Hmm... who is deflecting here?
