No. The improved clocking is done at the lowest hardware level. What the are attempting to do with the ST clocking circuit is improve on the masterclock signal that enables the DAC/ADC more precise.
Originally Posted by dwk /img/forum/go_quote.gif From what is know about the differences between the clocking mechanisms in ST and the STX, is there enough info to speculate on whether there are any driver implications? I'm looking at this from the Linux perspective - support for the Xonar series (including STX) is present to some degree in the newest Alsa versions, but if the ST requires explicit programming of any new clocking features, it's unlikely to trickle down to the Alsa drivers for quite some time. If this is just a hardware enhancement and the clock selection code is unchanged, then it's highly likely that the STX code will port over to the ST with minimal effort. Any guesses/speculation/insight? |
