Shouldn't be a problem today, where processors are 32 times faster  
than in Brian's days.

In any case, RTTY reception need not be decoded in real time, either.   
Audio buffers are audio buffers and decode algorithms are based on the  
sample number, not on the real time clock.  As long as you are fast  
enough on average, it is fast enough for the demodulator and decoder.

You can get away with the standard Windows sound library and not even  
have to go to ASIO.
