You can do an experiment, assumed you still own old computers and tapes. Tape synced to the Computer by SMPTE (Atari) or by Click (C64). Record a MIDI synth and after that record the same synth on another tape track. This will double the synth sound, all you get is a phasing, that doesn't move. Do the same with a Linux or Windows PC. Record a track with Qtractor or Cubase and after that record the same external synth on another Qtractor or Cubase track. Sounds do not start at the same time, there's always audible shift, comparable to slow early reflections and the phasing is moving. It's not a limitation of MIDI. However, I wont discuss this again, I just want to know if RTC is needed in the rtirq config for audio (ALSA/jackd), assumed jackd doens't start with "--clocksource OR -c h(pet)". And should rtirq config include an entry for HRTIMER/HPET? Is it possible to add HRTIMER/HPET to the rtirq config (e.g. in addition to RTC) and what is the name of such an entry?
