I swear I can hear the difference between 16bit/44.1k and 16bit/48k. 
When I decided to use the extra 3.9K that my card allows, I did a "side 
by side test" of a 44.1K and 48K. The difference is quality is enough 
for me to record at a standard 48K rate.

While we're on the subject. I noticed that a some of the sound font 
files that I've looked at have 33K audio files. Anyone know why this 
perticular sampling rate? I'm not being really diligent and going thru 
all my sound font files. I'm going from memory, and it seems I've seen 
this sampling rate in several sound fonts.
