Aha, that's interesting ... I am indeed on a built in soundcard on my
laptop, which is undoubtedly cheap - it's a work laptop from the
office, not one built for music, I don't own a laptop of own or a good
soundcard...

Anyway, now I am curious to use the ASIO driver and a different sample
rate, to see if it makes any difference...
