1's and 0's
How simple life in the digital domain seems. It's just 1's and 0's. No one has to worry about waveshape and transition points to make sure timing is correct. And jitter? Power supplies? Noise? It's just 1's and 0's. Let me take my tongue out of my cheek long enough to remind us that as simple as the idea of digital is, getting it right can take a lifetime of work and design, and then still, you're a mile away from perfect. Just ask DirectStream MK2 designer Ted Smith. That old refrain I so often hear of just 1's and 0's is like telling a bricklayer building a wall there's no need for skill or craftsmanship. All the bricks are the same.
