What causes the mismatch between a calculated sine wave and a measured sine wave?
Note: this question has been edited to refer to a sample that does not use dithering.
I recently asked my first question on here, about what I saw in an uncompressed audio file written out as integers....

Understanding sine wave generation in Python with linspace
I was trying to sample a 12.8 MHz sine wave (78.125 ns) signal at every 160us (micro seconds). Since 160us is multiple of base period 78.125ns(x2048) i expected to get a sample of fixed amplitude but ...

How do I use the Lazzarini-Timoney DSVF as a sine generator?
I've tested out the Chamberlin digital state variable filter (DSVF) as a sine generator as per this well-known approach. At $f_0=686\text{Hz}$ tone and $f_s=48000\text{Hz}$ it sounds fine and the FFT ...
