Ok I'm looking for opinions here.
Normally I record audio using my EMU 1820M into my computer.
I record at 48/24bit. I don't really have any reason I do this.
I've just read that perhaps my sound quality would be better at these
rates.
Everything I record is external synths, samplers, DI guitar and
occasionally my own voice (the only mic'ing I do).
Since I'm really just a recording \"hobbyist\" am I wasting resources by using 48/24bit recording?
What would I have to gain by recording at 44.1/24bit?
Will it really free up a significant amount of system resources?
Is it really that big of a difference for an amateur? Are my pals
going to say \"Dude this sounds like it was recorded with a low bit rate, you are a loser.\" instead of what they usually say, \"No one wants to hear your lame electro/techno/synth pop\".
