Okay interesting, I'll bookmark this so when it is time, I can find it again. And the delay could be exciting, especially if I forget to reduce the volume. :) I still think adding an RIAA curve option or two might be interesting. Maybe a customizable/tweakable RIAA curve. Though I'm not sure if it is possible, if the software would be able to perform sufficient amplification, I think RIAA adds quite a bit. The days we live in, I can remember working on my old Heath H-89 (CP/M and HDOS) systems, and struggling to get the the most simple of things working. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cgallery's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8925 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110642 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
