No they assume Windows which does decent quality resampling in kernel-space.

The long term solution IMHO is for ALSA to select a higher quality
resampler by default.

Short term solution is to use an app that does its own high quality
resampling and always run the card at 48Khz.

I had a SBLive something, wich is pre-Extigy. I never had the problem he describes, at least not to that extent. Sound quality may have been poor, but only in an audiophile point of view, generally it sounded good enough and there were no audible regressions of the upper frequencies or any other artifacts. This was on windows, linux, jack and any other program I used. Jack had a problem with resampling, but this was totally different.

PS: Lee: I'm not saying you're not right about the resampler in alsa, but my experience with an older Creative card suggests that this is not the problem for Bearcat.
