Today I hooked up the headphone outputs of my D.I. to my M-Audio Profire 2626 audio interface and sat down to do some semi-serious testing. I tested using 3 seconds of white noise (to test frequency response), a 20-second 20-20k sweep (to test phase coherence), and the Apples in Stereo's "Sunndal Song" (to test the ability to rock). Signal generation and MP3 conversion were done in an old version of Cool Edit Pro, and Incredible recordings and wave comparisons were done in Cubase 5.
I was going to take screen caps and make a whole big thing about it, but, as an older and wiser man once said: let me explain... no, no, there is too much. Let me sum up.
I went into these tests being completely happy with the performance I'd gotten from the Incredible so far, and expecting it to pass with flying colors.
Sadly, I was just a little bit disappointed.
Firstly, there appear to be MAJOR sample clock issues. "Sunndal Song" is 3:30
