If you intend to do a lot of editing, processing and general effing about go for 96k and down sample the final master. Don't bother with 192k at all unless your room is on the North wall of the building and needs extra heating. -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
