Two configurations are majorly different when it comes to USB audio implementation and our involvement in the firmware.

  • The miniStreamer supports sample rates up to 96 kHz and has one stereo input and one stereo output, on either SPDIF or I2S. The configuration is unfortunately locked up by the manufacturer of the USB chipset. (Tenor).
     
  • The USBStreamer supports a sample rate up to 192 kHz and has ten input channels and ten output channels – two on TOSLINK and eight on I2S. Alternatively, 8 input and 8 output channels are supported via ADAT on the optical connectors. We have full flexibility on the firmware and driver development since we're the ones who developed it.
