Hmm, that package really could use an update to the latest version in my
git repo.  There have been some important fixes since it was built.

The high-frequency noise in the DSD128 input is destabilising the
modulator.  You need to get rid of it with a low-pass filter.  Something
like this will do:

$ sox dsd128.dsf dsd64.dsf lowpass 50k rate -v 2822400 sdm

For a sharp cut-off, use the sinc effect instead of lowpass.  The exact
frequency isn't important, so you might want to experiment a bit.
