Just tried 88.2kHz for the first time

24 bit is a big step up for me. I notice 96k makes a difference also, but stick to 48k for recording. Can’t remember why, soemthing to do with uploading. I have jams recorded at various depths and rates (cos I’m forgetful) but when I listen back 24-96 are better sounding, more depth and clarity.

Some softsynths and plug-ins sound so much better at higher sampling rate but for recording higher sampling rate is useless imo.

We’ll actually, when producing it’s possible to hear a (f)actual difference between high (88.2/96) & regular (44.1/48) samplerates. As HIGHER samplerates actually INTRODUCE / INCREASE a lot of intermodulation distortion across the entire frequency range.

In practice, more often than not, HIGH samplerates actually end up sounding, and being INFERIOR compared to regular (44.1/48) samplerates.

Make sure to watch the first 8 minutes especially:
