I'm finding this all fascinating, especially when I skim past the ranting. Peeder, you seem really knowledgeable about word clock science, but your attacks on the op-amp mods (the subject was the microclock, btw
) without firsthand experience was pretty much a violation of site policy as far as my understanding. That having been said, I welcome yours and everyone's input into these technical questions, as I am considering selling my big ben and buying a microclock:
So if I'm understanding correctly, when I select my big ben as my clock source with my MOTU HD192's I'm actually creating jitter, because the crappy clocks are attempting to sync with the big ben...
So what happens when I'm using two HD192's? Is the one that's the clock source going to sound less jittery? What if I select the 424 card as the source? Then both are jittery?
What about different clock speeds? If the HD192's can go to 192khz, how hard can it be for the clocks to slave to an external at 48 or 96? Does that make a difference?
