I have always recorded at 48, but I tried 96k for a few tracks and I did like the sound much better. My converters must work better at 96k. I understand it will be down sampled but I'm not asking opinion on that.
I am running a saffire pro 40 interface, outboard compressor, about 7 outboard mic pre amps, I am running A 15' 2013 macbook pro Quad core i7 at 2.7Ghz with 16GB of ram, hooked to a thunderbolt 27 inch monitor. It is the most powerful macbook out. SSD hard drive, fantom HDD's for recording the audio tracks to. I have a TON of hard drives from being in the video business and a ton of TB I am not worried about the space it will take up.
How many tracks do you think I can run, running plug ins on pretty much every track? I track using amplitube and want to reamp later. Running amplitube on a Bus does not work out well so I'm talking about putting amplitube on pretty much every track.
Drums, will be superior drummer.
Vocals through the ART MPA ii mostly, I also have the RNP and a few more pre amps I've collected. The MPA ii seems to be the strongest. I am not connecting it via Adat so I'm not worried about it's converters. I'm connecting it through the saffire pro 40 the old fashioned way.
I am monitoring with zero latency with a software mixer, not through the DAW, so if I had to pull the buffer size down to make this work that would be a non issue.
I am coming here first because I do not want to start a song in 96k and get halfway through it and realize I can't pull it off.
