I'm asking this for a friend because obviously I'd never ask such a noob question - some sound cards have an oscillator, some have 2 of them, and some have none at all.
Take YMF71X based ISA soundcards for example - the implementations generally look the same but sometimes they don't have an oscillator. I assume the oscillator is used for timing so does that mean that cards without one is more likely to be speed sensitive? Or is it a non-issue and I - I mean my friend - can consider buying an oscillator-less card going forward?
Life? Don't talk to me about life.
