Xite @ 96kHz: some questions...

[Warp69]

Im only talking about sampling and reconstruction, not DSP processing. Many DSP functions related to saturation and distortion benefits from higher samplerates.

If you have an analogue signal that don't have any information above 18KHz - then it won't matter if you sample the signal at 48KHz or 96KHz - there's no benefit in using 96KHz. But the processing afterwards can easily benefits from higher samplerates.

The interpolation is done by filtering in the AD/DA converter.

signal -> filtering (bandlimiting) -> AD -> xxxxxxx -> DA -> filtering (recontruction) -> signal

I feel releived that maths tell me that i do not have to upgrade my system to 96khz(my initial thought)
I guess i just need to get to 32 bitdepth drivers now...

what are we dealing with? audiophile classical piano and orchestra and fools with $100,000 turntables or is it pop music?...

I always try to deliver the best possible product.

within budget, of course.

if budget is not a consideration...

Is there any news on this? Any improvement with new software version?

Can you run: One STM mixer, few delays and distortion(no more then 5), one Profit 5 (2xvoice), one Minimax (2xvoice), one Modular (2xvoice-"double face" patch) and two Warp reverbs at 96khz without any issue? Shouldn't xite-1 act as 10X more powerful then one Scope Pro? If you can't run this then xite-1 is not even 5x more powerful. What kind of optimization is needed to achieve at least 5X more power?
