For AY/YM, is there a limitation on the frequency of the output signal?

Hello,GriV ZY The length of the wire was 14 meters, maybe it was actually the influence of the echo.... I I'll try to do it with a shorter wire....

From Valery Grigoriev To All 11 November 2005

Hello,GriV Z.Y.Y. for each sample of the 48 kHz signal there was one re-oscillation, a total of about 21 μs for the duration of one reflection (if considered as option that the interference is caused by a reflected wave). 21 µs related to speed wave travel through the cable (= speed of light in vacuum ;)) - will be about 6.5 km the wave must run from here to there, i.e. the cable must be 3.25 km long. It seems my cable is a little shorter ;)))))

Hello,GriV Gri> which was digitalized. One last option seems unlikely to me Gri> - well, it can’t be that the manufacturer released such a destructive one Gri> product - which can normally record in this mode and at the same time Gri> produce such terrible interference. Gri> This is not the manufacturer, but a drunken Chinese in the basement. ;) > Only AY (I actually have YM) can blame. > By the way, poke the potato directly at the outputs of the AU, to the summary. Definitely normal there signal (checked with an oscilloscope at home).

Hello,GriV Gri> crappy output signal? Kwak so??? In the sense that then there will be no doubt that this is exactly the sound you have. =)

Hello,GriV Gri> That is why the limit for 10MBit Ethernet is 2.5 km Gri> wires - to reliably detect interference and reflected waves. Gri> That's not why. This is an arbitrary length related to the timeout collisions since the end of packet transmission. Those. this time is such that in it with 2.5 km it is guaranteed that another transmitter will have time to arrive if it has started something transmit. If you do more, there will be moments when there was a collision, but the transmitter did not know about this -> it will consider the packet transmitted, but it is in some points may not be accepted (deteriorated due to a collision). The result will be coma In reality, attenuation and distortion of the signal via the cable also plays a role.

Hello fk0 fk0> Isn’t your Scorpio green-turbo? He accelerates on the curb. Scorpio is yellow, it does not accelerate, the problem is not in the scorpion but in the sound...

If the signal passed through everything instantly, then why would there be no need for restrictions? along the cable length - set up repeaters and period.
