Surely, asynchronous means the clocks aren't running in synchrony, which would not have anything to do with sample rate conversion per se? (I have read a fair bit about sample rate conversion.) I don't really see why a one-clock system should perform asynchronous operations? -- P Floding ------------------------------------------------------------------------ P Floding's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2932 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=26685 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
