From Perotin to Prokofiev (and beyond), performed by Caruso to Khatia, it's all here.

Maybe it would help if I provided an example of what I'm talking about




For years, I've used a spectrograph app called Spek. You can save the output of this program in png format. Here's an example (Mehta's Farao recording of the first movement of Schoenberg's Chamber Symphony, Op. 9) which shows a nominal 24/96 file (over its 5:54 length) which has obviously been truncated at what looks to me like 48 kHz (with the highest signal "hard stopped" at 24 kHz - hard to see the scale on the left at this small size I know). I think this is the only instance I've ever run into where a 24/96 container did not hold an actual 24/96 file. Is this what you're talking about?

In this case however, this is the frequency spectrum over the 5:54 duration of the track, and of course you can't see individual bits (!), so I'm not sure where that part of the discussion is coming from.
