Re: Delay and thumps with Boston Acoustics BA735 speakers

I had a similar problem when using a SPDIF output with MLS software. The sine-wave sweep was short, and by the time the digital interface "linked up" the sweep was already half done!! DOH!!

So what I did was play a very long file in Windows Media Player, but turn the volume off. This kept the digital interface "hot" between sine-sweeps. Problem solved.

I know it's a P.I.T.A., but it worked for me...

You might even be able to set something up where you monitor a mic or line level input, but keep the input level at minimum. This may also keep the digitla output "hot".

Whether or not these methods work with kernel streaming / ASIO and allow for bitperfect playback is another unfortunate can of worms...

Hope this helped.

Cheers,
Presto
