Chris and Jody do a mini dive into the world of sample rates and what they mean. What exactly is a sample rate? Why we choose certain sample rates. Should you upsample after recording at a lower sample rate? A short history of how digital gear got better with sample rates over time. How did “they” arrive at their sample rates initially. Drawbacks of higher sample rates are discussed. Plus the ONE thing you shouldn’t do when recording in relation to sample rates. It’s all in here. It’s also not unlikely that there will be some nonsense discussed.
Stick around and find out what Friday Finds Chris and Jody discovered this week that will be beneficial to your recording prowess.
