- Sampling 11kHz with samplerate of 22khz will produce noise at 11khz and 33khz.
- Although this noise may be seen as an improvement, it`s noise nevertheless.
-
- Sampling 8Bit at 44khz doesn`t produce within 22khz, thus you don`t hear any noise.
-
- Unfortunately Amiga`s DMA sometimes skips data when running 4 channels together with
- a hires-screen. This way you get noise, although you set the rate to 44khz.
