I saw that in the ADC measurement tests, there is a significant increase when one disables DC blocking either through modification or through firmware changes. Now I was under the impression this was to prevent accidentally sending CV or some other weird situation where you accidentally plug in the wrong thing into your interface. But appears this could be introduced with bad mastering or sound files that are too loud?
A user on another forum got a "DC voltage detected" on their RME interface when playing a music file from Apple Music.
I was planning on having an RME FS BE handling my ADC duties and having it set off. I run real analog gear into my interface, but this is all legit studio stuff. e.g. Brand name mic pres (not knockoff stuff), DIs, compressors etc.
What am I getting myself into running this without DC blocking? And how is this relevant in day to day operation?
