RE: What if you don't care about 24/192?

Back when I was deciding which sample rate to use recording my lps I had a few brief conversations with the folks at Blue Coast. I was curious about their views on downsampling. Cookie said they could hear it. She felt the best recordings were recorded at the sample rate they would be released. I've not tried to hear the degradation myself but I have not downsampled (other than for the car). I'm sure her experience makes her better qualified than I.

I record at 24/96. I've tried 24/192 but did not hear an improvement. I refuse to give up editing therefore avoid DSD. I use RX to clean up the recordings and especially appreciate the compare feature. It makes hearing the before and after differences much easier.

I use a Tascam DA-3000. One reason for choosing it was sd/cf cards. I did not want usb. My computer and system are on a separate circuits.
