[ProAudio] The High-Resolution Challenge

[Louis Judson]

Big smile! or as the kids say: :-)

Yeah “DC to light" was a catchphrase. Under 10Hz gives me tummy trouble (or lower).

I sometimes have thought that having extra high ends would give more processing possibilities in post produciton, but thanks to you I realize more than 96 k is silly.

I recently gave a producer a choice on a small project we were doing: 8 tracks at 96k or as many as he might want at 48k. We ended up with 14 48k tracks. Sounded great! :-)
