True. I just looked through the manual for the delta 1010, and it
clearly says one needs to connect the cards with spdif to sync them when
using more than one delta card.
Next time I'll read the manual first...
alsa_out tools
are build to compensate the clock drift.
If you use SRC you pretty much violate AES specs as you lose bit
transparency. SRC is not a solution, it is a last resort.
In a well controlled situation like this, sound cards should be synced
in hardware. All professional sound cards support this (some can even
sync their buffers). It really isn't rocket science.
