I can't hear any distinct difference between 48Khz and 96Khz. There is supposedly a difference between 44.1 and 48 and there is theory to back it up when you look at the higher frequencies of your hearing range.
I don't think there is really any need to sample or record at anything above 48Khz/24-bit, no matter what audiophiles believe (Remember that these are the same guys who pay $100 for audio cables...)
Yes, I do agree with you there - I was just making a point with the OP. You can eliminate all the audio 'artifacts' with just good quality converters and a decent sample rate.
As a musician and a sound engineer I shun everyone who relies on Auto Tune to make themselves sing in pitch!
If you don't have the vocal ability to sing in tune then you shouldn't be singing.
I think it's disgraceful that AutoTune be used for anything other than correcting minor blemishes and should never be used live. In fact, I usually take the stance that if I can't reproduce the effect live then I won't put it into the song. The audience has paid to see a live performance. Not your studio album played through speakers.
Unfortunately this is becoming all too common nowadays, using digital tools to touch everything up because you can. I weep for music's future.
Yes, exactly!
You want professional audio interfaces? Firewire is the only way to go. USB just has too much latency for serious recording purposes and half-duplex just doesn't cut it for software monitoring at sub-5ms latency in most cases.
Heh... the only problem with that is the fact that the vast majority of our people are afraid of change from the ANC to another party. I guess mostly because they are afraid of another Apartheid. However they must realise that our current government pretty much sucks in a lot of ways and maybe a change is needed to make our country stronger and healthier. Or maybe the ANC could start actually doing something for us..
Our internet here isn't great at all.. With 1Mbps - 4Mbps ADSL being the latest thing coming out just recently. And until we see another telecommunications company coming along to help us we'll be stuck with the wonderful prices from Telkom...
From my understanding of his comments its that he wants to still be able to access the web-based interface of GMail but not let Google log his search queries. He isn't talking about Google setting cookies for POP3 (If you even do that)

I should have phrased it a bit clearer, however.
Um... why not just get good quality ADCs/DACs, record at 192Khz sample rate, 24-bit (maybe even 32-bit...) resolution uncompressed WAVE (or FLAC)?
The quality won't deteriorate over time like your analog.

Uhh.. why would you want or even *need* the HTML tag in a comment post??

And RME is not professional? Most of their cards have full support in linux thanks to ALSA.

Actually Ubuntu comes from isiZulu and Xhosa. Directly translated from isiZulu it means: Humanity
I haven't read the article (slashdotted) but I would say that that is the only correct reason why Windows is slightly better than Linux.
