RE: A revolution in audio rendering

========
are you saying that when I open a connection to the device it is actually the driver on the pc that I am talking to and that the link from the pc to dac is machine to machine without software involved ?
========

Yes, this has been the basic principle of computer audio for decades when DMA was introduced. No matter whether PCI, USB or HDMI (which is basically something like PCI to Intel HDA soundcard in the graphics card plus "spdif on steroids"). Your software is not part of any synchronous data path to the DAC as there is none.
