Topic: Offset

Hi,
Not really an issue,more an interrogation:
I have aHDSP AIO And I am glad.
The AES out in are connected to a Sonifex Redbox converter ,the Spdif to a Behringer and the unbalanced in out of the card are also active.
The question is: if I have a microphone with the preamp plugged in the Sonifex and the optional outs to the Spdif and the AIO in and I give for example a clap: the waves of the Aio and the AES are lined up ,but the Spdif is offset by " some" samples ,it is not actually an issue because the signal is not out of sync it is just offset.
Maybe someone could give me some insights.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers.
Olivier

Re: Offset

This is normal - different AD converters have different AD latency... It does not cause any problems, though.

Re: Offset

Thank you Daniel for answering so quickly .
You put a nail out of my foot ( sorry kind of french saying...) I was afraid I was doing something wrong.
The only thing is I have to remember to give a clap at the start of the recording and simply align the waves files manually or with a plug-in.
Best regards.
Olivier.
