Hi,
HD does stand for High Definition (despite appearances?!) - It's
referring to Intel new audio architecture:
http://www.intel.com/design/chipsets/hdaudio.htm
I haven't managed to test RAT on an HD audio card as I haven't
currently got access to one - I'll see if I can find one....
I'm assuming this problem is being seen on Windows - anyone tried HD
audio on Linux?
Cheers,
Piers
