I have an XMOS 7-mic board using the CS43L21 for DAC output. I get it working at 48 kHz, but not at 8 kHz, following the example of XMOS AN00219

What I am looking for is some open driver that tackles more than just 48 kHz. Or a trick, if there is one. PIN30 MCLK gets 24.576 MHz and I have internal counters to count down with, for the speed of the I2S.
