I haven't checked for recently available devices, but in the not too distant past it was very expensive to get more than 8 usable bits from a device running at multiple hundreds MHz sample rate (not to mention the extra load in the math and processing such as filtering, FFT, difference calculations, etc. resulting from more bits) -- Chris Caudle _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
