Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

Hi 'Fan,
There's nothing wrong with upsampling - it has a legitimate use, and is an effective jitter reducer depending on how well it is implemented. I think the trouble perhaps started when someone supposed that, for instance, upsamling to 96KHz improved transient response to the equivalent of true 96KHz data. DCS have done nothing to discourage this myth, mind. Why would they?

Dan

Partially true but dCS has consistently stated that upsampled data is not "true" 96 or 192 sampled data and that in fact there is no difference in the frequency response comparing the original to the upsampled. The differences are in the filters used and they provide a choice of six.
