When you feed an external wordclock into a Transporter it has to use a
PLL to generate the high frequency "master clock" used inside the TP.
This PLL is going to have much greater jitter than the crystal
oscillators already in the TP.
The ONLY reason to use a wordclock with a TP is if you alread
Is not the idea to slave the transporter to the DAC clock ? So there are
DAC's with clock output, not many but. They do exist, or you can have
the DAC modded to have it.
This would then reduce jitter as the data is feed to the DAC by a rate
dictated by it's own clock, piont is not absolute o'cloc
Good question and one I've been curious about (simply because the plug
is there :-).
I can imagine with a complex studio setup, wordclock sync could be very
important... But for a straightforward playback chain, I'd love to read
any articles advocating this.
Here's an interesting article from a
I might be getting someone to build me a battery powered external word
clock for my Transporter and have been asked at what frequency?
Also is the one above freq able to handle all the different files I'll
inevitably be feeding?
