Hi everyone.
Before I get into it, a couple of preliminaries:
* I'm not asking if there's any perceived benefit in working at a higher sample rate, this is just a question relating to how to get around a theoretical technical problem.
* I'm not trying to extend the Nyquist frequencies of something that has already been recorded at 44.1kHz
* I have tried to do a search on the forum for a similar question, but was unable to turn up anything (maybe I just asked the wrong question)
* This is just something I was playing around with last night (briefly and unsuccessfully) and it got me wondering if anyone on the forum has worked out how to do it.
Ok, let's begin
Let's say that I wanted to record some new audio at 48 or 88.2kHz in order to maintain whatever transient upper harmonic frequencies are inherent in the source.
So I set my software's sample rate to 88.2 (because dithering back to 44.1 later on will be in multiples of 2) in order to record this new audio.
(In case you're wondering, I'm using Logic V7 with a Delta 1010 card)
Hello! What's this? Now all my pre-recorded loops or audio I would like to work with are now playing back faster because Logic assumes that all audio in this session is recorded at an 88.2kHz sample rate.
Hmmm.......interestink.
I go into the audio window for the files already in the track and set them to be 44.1.....apparently this also resets the sample rate for the whole session again. Bummer.
Bouncing to disk only permits 16/24 (and mp3) bit rate adjustment as well.
Hmmm......a bit of a quandry.
So, finally getting to the point, has anyone discovered a way of converting 44.1kHz files to a higher sample rate in order to be able to use them in a higher sample rate recording session?
Your thoughts, experiences, and solutions are all welcomed!
