I can choose e.g. 29400 Hz or 22050 Hz there and I can not really hear the difference in sound quality (maybe my old ears?!). By that I can play PianoTeq and B4 Organ at the same time with no problems on my LG X120 (Atom CPU N270 @ 1.6 GHz) through Jack. (To be honest, I'm using -p128 as buffer size) Gerhard _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
