Ok i have been to my Cubase forum, my 2480 forum and my m-audio forum, needless to say i cannot figure out what is wrong here and now i have a bunch of people blaming another person's equipment which does not help me.

So i am turning to the 1 forum i know i can get a straight answer(s) to this issue i am having.

Ok here goes.

I was hoping you experts might be able to answer a newbie question or at least point me in the right direction to a resource.

I ve been hearing a lot about problems with sample rate conversion. At first thought i would choose to use best bitdepth and sample rate i could find but then i start thinking that, if finally my tracks will be listen in 44.1 the mathenatical operation it has to be done will be less perfect if i record in 48k or 96k than if i do it 44.1 or 48.2.

8-) I've been researching the 1010LT PCI card and was wondering if the 96kHz will be obsolete any time soon? I thought that CDs were at 44.1 so if this is true... how long do you think it will take for producers to start at anything higher? not that it really matters to me since I'm just an independent musician... it just got me thinking before I purchase this card...

I just started working with a client who recorded his project on ADATs at another studio. When transferring his tracks to my Pro Tools system, he wasn't sure of the sample rate. He thought it was 44.1, and on playback, said it sounded right. Now he says it is slow.

Hi. Hopefully someone can help me with this. I made a mixtape using Cool Edit Pro 2. Unfortunately when I started it, I selected 32Khz instead of 44.1.

I was just wondering something the other day. If I have a session in Sonar tracked at 24/96 and have any outboard fx equip that processes at 48khz do I have to convert my session down to 48khz before using those outboard fx or no? My instinct tells me no but logic says yes. Can someone clear this up for me? Thanks :roll:

I've just finished recording a song in Sonar 3 in 24 bits with a smple rate of 96hz. now I've realised that I have to change that to burn songs in a CD, but when I try to convert the bits by dithering in Sound Forge6, I can, but I can't change the sample rate just like that.

So.. I am using the RMEconverters through an echo layla and I have my echo set to external word clock sync, but with the echo driver you still have to set the sample frequency.

Now common sense would tell me that if you are syncing to external sync why would you have any say over the freq?

Anybody using wavelab?

What is the appropriate way to do sample rate conversion?

I have been setting up all my fx in a chain like EQ (in the plugin section) L2 (in dither section)
Then I hit render and select 44.1k in the sample rate section of the save file menu.

The results seem sub-optimal.
