It it went through ASRC then it has in fact been affected by the analog domain. ASRC deals with two non-synchronized PCM signals, so variances in the frequencies of the input relative to the output (an analog quantity) will affect the data that is calculated - that's basically the whole point of it. Admittedly, this is about the extent of my understanding of ASRC. Still, no amount of jitter would explain the gross distortion of that waveform. I'm still going with an algorithmic bug. -- seanadams ------------------------------------------------------------------------ seanadams's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53345 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
