[sdiy] AD/DA schematics? quantizers,etc

[Dan Snazelle]

yes i have actually built quite a few crushers , some of my own design. they are cool but i am looking for something a bit different

i suppose what i meant was i was interested in changing BOTH the sample rate AND bit rate of the incoming audio with an AD/DA setup

thanks!
