@@nicksterj saying that a higher sample rate is more accurate. Perhaps at a very big push more accurate in the top end of the frequency range that most people,e cannot hear if you do lots of processing functions on top of each other rather than using a bus. Saying a higher bit depth has a higher dynamic range again is theoretically true, but in practice it means a lower noise floor that in most situations is irrelevant. Again it is only important in over processing where a badly written okug-in can introduce noise. But a plug-in could have its own over sampling to eliminate that phenomenon. To say that a higher sample bit depth is just going to sound better is just a misleading generalization and promotes a misconception.

@@nicksterj sadly you are showing your lack of understanding about how Nyquist works. Having a higher sample rate will make no difference to the accuracy of the frequency range you hear, all it allows you to do is to accurately reproduce frequencies well above the audible range or in the case of music production you can put on a much more pleasant roll off on your high pass filter to reject any artifacts from plug-ins you have on your DAW. Recording a 100hz sinewave at 44.1khz will give you the exact same accuracy as recording the same sinewave at 96khz or 192khz The whole concept of it being some jagged step like they loved to put on marketing material for CD’s is utter nonsense. So saying otherwise is a total disservice. Sure there are reasons to record at a higher frequency, as I had said, it does give you more processing room to eliminate artifacts in some post production plug-ins but it can be just as questionable if it really does anything. You are just as likely to introduce bit errors inside the recording from using a computer with non EEC memory but you don’t see anyone promoting that. Then you say about dynamic range. 24bit sound does have more dynamic range, but again it’s misrepresented by some as more sound resolution. It is not, again a 100hz sinewave recorded at 1db with a 24bit encoding will be identical to the same sinewave recorded at 16bit. And then you talk about increasing or compressing the sound, but as you are doing this all in the digital domain you are not limited by the same limitations that analog had. Then when you throw in the fact that most people prefer having an actual audible sound floor in they will purposefully add in tape hiss as a plug in. There is a saying that good is not good enough and better is always better, So with that theory we should all throw out our cell phones and earbuds as they all fall below even the good thresholds and only listen to music on $3,000,000+ equipment as better is always better.
