Realtek AC97 Audio Card.

But my real question is this still a good quality card, it records at 24 bits/32 bit float in Adobe audition and i can record at 96k on it (i just found out i could).

Second question for any cool edit guru's out there is that wen i start a new session im givin the option to select how many khz i want my session to be at. I noticed it gave me the option at 192 (yes i can hear the difference in the others) but my sound card support (which is in options/device properties) doesn't list it, should i record it anyway or leave well enough alone?!

Adobe audition does let me go all the way through after i have selected 192khz but i want to know will this really improve my sound even though my soundcard doesn't list it?

thanks ya'll
 
thats cool but...

at 96khz i can hear the difference! but the question is ok to do so?!
 
my 2 cents,

if your soundcard does not state that it records at 192, but the program you are using does allow you to do this, and you can hear the better quality then go ahead. you will still have to dither it down to 16bit 41khz, then i doubt you will hear a difference because it will be sooo subtle, plus if you make any part of the song in another program it will have to match the data rate or you will have to dither it up or down. the higher the number the more information being processed, but when it goes to cd it will end up at 16/41 like i said, then it would be hardly noticeable that you worked with that extra information. if you don't mind the extra work of recording at a higher resolution, go for it. btw, you can manually dither it down or you can let the burning software do it for you automatically.
 
thanks man

and yeah i see ur point, i decided to stick with 24/96 and just save the dithering for the mastering house.
