Hello i just wonder, i have a dac that i can choose 16bit 44 or 16 bit 48 khz, but i wonder how do dacs works.
If i put 16 bit 48 khz in the characteristics in the dac do that mean that if a 16 bit 44 signal came to the dac ship or processor that that signal is the upsample to 16 bit 48 khz? meaning that extra sound or in this case numbers is ad to the original music that is was not there?
And what about the other way round, if i got a signal that is for example 24 bit 88 do that mean that the signal is just cut to 16 bit 48 khz or maybe the signal is just filtered to 16 bit 48 khz so that the dac is working all the time with the translations of the numbers to 16 bit 48 khz?
Regards
