Robin is correct. DSP software works on words/samples and so a single sample is the smallest thing that can be manipulated (the smallest "unit of work") and the smallest change you can make to a sample is to reduce/increase its value - which is a numeric value between +/-32767 - by "1"... -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
