Thanks for your reply, @NicB . So, if I put the AHM-16 to clock slave (sync to I/O port), what will it do when the DSnake system goes down? Will it fall back to its internal clock?

(Part of this whole thing is: I want to tear down the FOH, while some DJ continues on stage. So the DJ feeds into the analog ports of the AHM-16 and then goes on forever standalone, while the SQ5 and I go to bed.)

Further question: So, when going Dante, the Audinate chip in the expansion card would do full sample rate conversion for me, without the issue?

I know it’s more like a dirty trick what I am trying to do, but it’s nothing to the trouble I ran into when trying dirty tricks with AES67 in another setup, eventually going all-Dante.
