I think it has to do with the converters (maybe both DA and resampling) but it only seem to happen at higher volumes. So I am turning the volume down to 80% on master and 80% on PCM and leave it there.

I don't use the full volume scale. And for professional use I do have two external devices :-) (Tascam US-122 (anyone interested in buying it?) and a Presonus FirePod) > I'm asking all of these questions, not just because i am an audiophile > snob, but because i want to learn as much as i can about this stuff.
