[QUOTE="Phil Graham, post: 34982, member: 430"] Re: Digital Boards - Sound Quality Jason, You wouldn't, because the sampling rates are too slow to see the jitter on smaart/TEF. You could easily see it on a wideband sampling scope. Gaussian jitter is straightforward to observe. Regardless, the external clocks are not an improvement to jitter, because the phase lock loop that they sync to in the console have worse jitter specifications by a significant margin over using the internal clocking. I'm not saying that the external clock doesn't make the console sound better, as I have never had a situation of critical listening to test it out in, but if the external clock did create an improvement, less jitter is not the explanation for it.
