MessageHi guys.  I didn't mean to imply that Caketalking affected sampling 
rates in anyway.  Unfortunately, I no longer have the message from Gord on the 
subject but he said something similar to Phil.  For those who feel that way, 
why in your opinion does bit rate matter more than high sampling rates?  For 
that matter, the over-the-top sampling rate of 192 has become a possibility for 
some of us.  Why stick with 44100?
Bob.

  I know that there have been some issues with recording softsynthes like 
Dimension Pro in earlier versions of Sonar at hi sample rates.  Personally, I 
would stick with 24 bit 44.1. but hay, that's just me.

    I remember trying to record Dimension Pro at 96 KHZ and most of the patches 
were screwed up in some way.  Gordon Kent said at the time that high sampling 
rates had never truly been tested with Cake Talking but this may have changed 
recently.

      If you already recorded a project at a given sample rate, you're stuck 
with that sample rate for that project.  I'm pretty sure that the only way you 
can get your soft synths to record at 96K is to start a blank project with that 
setting.  The reason you're getting the unsupported error is because your 
original project may be recorded at a different sample rate, say, 48 or 44.1.  
In a pinch, you could copy your MIDI tracks and paste them into a new project 
at the desired sample rate if you don't wat to reperform your parts.  In 
addition, there are some cards that only record at certain sample rates.  It's 
possible at the Edirol you have will only go up to 48K.  You'll have to check 
your documentation or visit the web for more information on this.

        Hello,

        I'm trying to switch the sample rate on my edirol card to 96khz. 
However, when I open a sonar project, it won't play it and i get an error 
message that says something like, "the current audio format is not supported by 
the soundcard," or something like that. I know the rate is switched to 96 in 
sonar's audio options. The only audio in this project is softsynths. My only 
guess is that the softsynths don't support 96khz sampling rate. Is that 
correct? If that's the case: is there a way to record/convert those instruments 
so that they will play at 96khz?

        Thanks.
