Yoadie yo ho !!!
Based on a message from NaNo to ,

Come on... really... it all depends on the manufacturer. You would
REALLY have MANY less questions if you went very carefully through
Petsoff website at http://www.sci.fi/~petsoff

That's what it does - if you have a 16 bit sample it plays it in 12 bit ;)
N> sampling I can choose between 8 and 16 bit sampling.
Can't believe that.

Go and look for yourself...

N> How about 14 and 16?
Also very little difference. Mostly noise level and "crispness" of the
sound. You will hear more difference if you mix more channels. If you mix,
say, 16 channels, I believe you lose 4 bits of resolution (unless mixing
is done with a larger amount of bits). Then from 12 you get 8 and you
hear the difference, from 16 you get 12 and the difference is not that bad...
