in the range of [-32768,

maintain a pipeline of blocks to be fed to the audio hardware in order
to prevent glitches. If the software is late enough to impact the
audio, you won't get mistimed samples? you'll get a great big click or
thump from the dropout.
The notion that the CPU load is impacting intersample timings is a
rather tall claim which requires equally striking evidence. The people
who claim to hear this claim to have spent dozens of hours listening
in order to find the difference? though of course never with rigorous
blind testing methodology? Borrowing a scope and getting an eye
