well, you sure loose quality downsampling to 16bit, that's what they
heard
On the contrary, the test showed that the listeners could *not* hear
the difference.
Ciao,
well I refered to Number 2 as 1 + 2 say diferent things
Number two said that different styles of recording (mic-placement, room-
acoustics and mixing) made a difference, while number one says that there is no
difference between 192kHz (and probably 24bit or 32bit) and 44.1kHz/16bit.
Given the fact that nowadays most consumer soundcards work with 48kHz
internally and re-sample anything else, its save to stay with 48kHz for
recording and online-publishing.
Have fun,
Arnold
yea, your right, didn't read it carefully enough.
anyone knows how to find out internally SR of my card?
