But if you feel happy with digital volume control, then rest assured that the Touch (probably) implements it as well as any other device. I know for sure that on the older models (SB3, Transporter, etc) the digital volume control is very cleverly arranged so that every step down to around -30dB results in absolutely NO rounding errors whatsoever if the source is 16 bit. Presumably the Touch's firmware will have inherited this enlightened arrangement. (I don't own a Touch so can't say for sure).
