Re: More on Async and why it may never work again...

USB audio async mode is using two isochronous streams! Async refers to the clock in the DAC being independent from the PC.

One ISO streams sends the data down to the PC and another ISO stream in the opposite direction tells the PC how much data to send to keep the buffer within limits.

The Audigy 2NX or the older Emagic EMI 2|6 seem to work just fine in async USB audio mode.
