Why because I can...lol.
I have a powerful PC, and a terrabyte of hard drive space. I can't hear any difference, but it doesn't make my machine run noticeably different recording in this format either. Due to my (admittedly shaky) understanding of the Nyquist effect which states something to the effect of "unambiguous reconstruction is possible if the signal is bandlimited and the sampling frequency is greater than twice the signal bandwidth", there seemed to be at least a possibility that recording at higher than 48Khz might have some benefit.
Peace!

If that's that little silver box (a buddy of mine has one) try it at 44.1kHz. It sounds *WAAAAAAAYYYYY* better at 44.1 than at 96.Behringer FCA202 24-bit/96KHz
because it's still only 24 bits of information. The idea behind this is so your computer doesn't have to convert the 24 bit file to 32 bit float (adding 8 zeros at the end isn't a big trick for a computer) on the fly. However it makes your hard drive work 1 1/3 times harder to keep up, so your track count suffers.Drewcifer666 said:You didn't include 32-bit floating in your poll.

Almost all DAWs do processing at 32bit float. I can't think of a computer DAW that doesn't.Keiffer said:
I use Samplitude which supports both 16 bit integer or 32 bit float files. I'm not sure at what point it may convert to 32 bit float if using 16 bit wavs. possibly stating the obvious.Farview said:Almost all DAWs do processing at 32bit float. I can't think of a computer DAW that doesn't.
