For example:
At f = 48000 Hz, I would expect a soundcard to deliver exactly 48000 *
10 = 48E4 samples in 10 seconds.
Is this assumtion wrong ?
no, but its a bit like relativity: who defines "10 seconds"? the only
definition of 10 seconds that the soundcard cares about is the one
defined by *its* clock. its clock isn't the system clock and they do
not run at the same speed. 10 seconds on one clock might be 10.000002
or 9.998 seconds on the other.
