Re: AES/EBU vs SPDIF

Thanks garyb, that's a nice bit of info. Gotta get myself a cable and see if it will work with my Studio400!

Re: AES/EBU vs SPDIF

for something to recieve clock, it must have an input. devices that only have digital outputs MUST be master.
And if you have both input and output you cannot run it together with another device with both input and output, i.e. no side-chaining through AES/SPDIF on the scope.
At least that is the ...

Re: Another thread about summing in scope

The reason I mentioned using 32 bit float all the way when comparing summing is that it is at least theoretically possible that you get a difference using 24 bit files for input and output that is not related to summing.
It doesn't matter that you cannot record or listen to float if the purpose is ...

Re: Another thread about summing in scope

yes, and I read something similar in some thread here. It was mentioned that the problem could be that scope's asio drivers, including the 24bit ones, aren't the best at converting audio to another platform through ASIO.
I never have tested if the same happens when routing the ASIO channels from a ...

Re: Another thread about summing in scope

at the end of the day, if you take 32 channels sum them up, in several daws and they all cancel each other out on inverted phase, then you have a placebo effect (logic8, protools7, samplitude8 and cubase sx3 cancel each other perfectly).
if not, the software is not up to par, or out-dated.
The ...

Re: Another thread about summing in scope


I tried different ASIO drivers including float and record in 32 bit float, but having it running straight trough the scope mixer just sounds clearer. If I send them back to scope on separate channels it's a bit better but still not the same.

Could you please clarify this for me?
Basically what ...

Re: Another thread about summing in scope

Even though I'm no math wizard I do know how summing works since math cannot get more basic than that...and I really cannot see how software could sound different based on the way it's adding numbers since there only is one way to do that.

Still I have many times to my great surprise found ...
