? Don't follow you.<br>
<br>
If you are sending track 1-4 out card 1 and track 5-8 out card 2, if
they don't use the same clock, they will be out of sync.<br>
How much it is noticeable to humans is another factor. If the piece is
long, then the drift will reach a threshold at which people will start
noticing the issue.<br>
