WDM/KS Audio technology native for Windows 2k/XP/2k3. PCM format conversion between clients on either end of the VAC cable. Signal mixing (with saturation) between output port clients. Almost no sound latency with maximal interrupt frequency. Floating point formats are not supported. Almost any of fixed point PCM audio formats (200.1000000 samples per second, 8.32 bits per sample, 1.8 channels). VAC version 4.0x is an upgraded version from 3.12. A computer PCI, Firewire or USB slot is not used. There are no external cables to degrade the sound quality or possibly pick up RFI.
