It's an issue as soon as sync is involved. Not necessarily for clock
signals (only).

Assumed you record the audio signal of a kick from a synth and _not_ at
the same time a percussive bass that should be in unison with the kick,
IOW you record this bass sound after you recorded the kick, then both
MIDI events are affected by different MIDI jitter, regarding the
mismatch the percussive bass and kick do cause an early reflection like
effect. There is the argument that jitter is lower than inaccuracy of a
musician, so it's impossible to notice. This is a half-truth, it depends
to the kind of music you make and what you want to archive.

Another question is, if there is or is not an issue regarding galvanic
isolation.

Ralf
