I have done this a time or two, and it may sound a little better, but I didn't think it sounded that much better to hardly make it worth the time. Of course you could try recording something with SoundForge at its' top sample rate and then pull it back down. That was what I did, and it did seem that the top end frequencies may have been a little clearer, but not enough that the average person would ever notice the difference.

Rob and others, what do you think? If you are recording something that will ultimately be produced on CD at a sampling rate of 44100, it is better to record at 44100 and 24 bit than it is to record at 48000 and resample. Obviously you ultimately have to change the bit rate to 16, but what about it being better to record at the original sample rate rather than resampling? Any thoughts? Neal
