I'm talking about feeding detected audio to the computer for decoding. And not all digital formats are the same -- going from one to another takes time and processor power, and, depending on how data is encoded, may be problematic.

Jim,

A bit more information please.  Are you talking about TX or RX?  Are you 
talking about the A/D that is typically in the TX path between the CODEC and 
DSP of a modern transceiver or perhaps an A/D that may be used in an outboard 
analog sound interface?

Why wouldn't a smart new rig accept USB audio and feed it directly to DSP 
rather than converting to analog and back to digital before reaching the DSP.
