Yeah, I expect it to happen end of year or early 2021.

End of year for Xmas sales is probably what they want to target though given everything else going on in 2020 I'll be surprised if a lot of things aren't slipping.

USB4 is TB by the way, hence why that works for me too. What I actually need is FireWire, but since ExpressCard is dead and nothing has built in FW any more, Thunderbolt/USB4 is the only option.

Yeah, I noticed that about the spec though given how Apple's USB-C implementations are I am wondering if some vendors might turn off/on features selectively. I'm curious what you need FireWire/IEEE 1394 for in 2020, something legacy?

Audio interface. It's not even that old (5y), and I'm very happy with it. Focusrite Saffire Pro 26.

Ah looks pretty nice. I mostly use one of these: https://www.rane.com/catalog/product/view/id/2955/s/sl4-sl4/category/186/ … though sometimes one of these: https://www.denondj.com/ds1-ds1 Those are for DVS use though I would like to get a portable 192KHz+ recording device eventually, maybe something such as this: https://centrance.com/mixerface/

What do you need 192kHz for? There's barely much of a reason to go 96k even (assuming the converters are decimating/interpolating with decent quality). Those DVS things look nice though, I was thinking meh because RCA (unbalanced) and then I read "galvanic isolation".

I actually want 784KHz or better though chances of finding that in a portable recorder are more or less nonexistent. I do weird things with time stretching and vinyl, and have some theories I want to explore more deeply. Also, good DACs can be used for, well, other things.pic.twitter.com/lSGsNWeYoy

Oh sure, if you're going beyond audio at standard speed then it starts making sense :-)

A lot of DJ mixers intended for DVS use only do 24bit 48KHz presumably to reduce computational load and cost. Some nicer ones do 32bit 96KHz though AFAIK
@Serato doesn't support higher sample rates. In theory, I imagine it's possible to recompile@mixxxdj to handle such things.pic.twitter.com/CMoxsFapjt

32bit ADC/DACs aren't a (useful) thing. That's just bullshit marketing. You can't get that level of precision without going to very expensive lab test equipment, at DC, nevermind AC! Those extra 8 bits are just noise.

Replying to @marcan42 @yukkuriyankey and
96k is useful when processing is involved (sometimes), though often it makes more sense to resample around specific operations that benefit from higher sample rates (e.g. nonlinear ones) rather than run the whole world at 96k.

OTOH 32bit *float* processing makes sense for digital audio, as an intermediate format. I do all my audio work at 32f/48k with 24b I/O (96k not worth the overhead) When I coded FW for a DSP for my speakers I set it up as 24b I/O 32b fixed point processing (no float supp) at 96k.
