What is the point the having an adaptive - asynchronous switch if the later is purely better? :P
I can't exactly remember the differences between class 1 and 2 USB audio devices and how async comes into it, but basically: I think the adaptive mode switch doesn't require additional drivers ever. Whereas either certain sample rates/bit depths for class 2 usb audio devices [definitely for windows] or async endpoints (I guess a lot of companies advertised the driver-less async from the TI chip back in the day, so yea] do. Note, class 2.0 usb audio device is not so much to with USB 2
>I thought the ODAC didn't apply SPDIF between the USB receiver and the Dac but I2S instead... I may not be reading this right, I lack the know how to fully interpret this data...
Judging by the te7022l diagram on the previous page (pdf from the mfg), it has both spdif in and out. The output of the app says 'Audio Control Input Terminal Descriptor:' so it's not the interface between USB and DAC
(at least afaik)
>svyr, do you know of a software which can track power draw from USB ports in real time under Windows or Linux
I didn't think there was a sensor per se (or at least not pollable). I think there's a fault sensor when the device draws too much current and the port is reset by the OS [or by the firmware of the hub of whatever). I might be wrong. [devices also clearly have static field for max power consumption as well, since it's reported on enumerating things attached to ports)
