Hallo Jens,
JRB> Below is an e-mail i recieved from Terratec Support. I was complaining JRB> that the 24 bit output on the EWX 24/96 was not working under Windows JRB> 2000 with the WDM drivers.
JRB> The WDM driver architecture does not support 24bit resolution. This is JRB> a limitation of the driver architecture itself. JRB> For ACPI you must use WDM - but for 24bit you need to use VxD drivers JRB> and disable ACPI under W2K. There is no other solution until the WDM JRB> architecture is expanded.
JRB> Mfg/best regards,
This is not correct as other Soundcard Producers are able to do it right !

No Problem using 16 24 or 32 Bit ! Even with ACPI :) Only the Winamp Output Plugin seems to work better at 32 Bit -> no strange sound at the end of the file ;)... but no Mono in this mode ;(
