The focusrite will clock the ADCs at whatever rate you select, it will not
resample. However, the low pass filter at 44.1k will have more effect on
the in band audio than at 48k. Do a listening test, if you can't tell the
difference with cymbals and such, I guess it doesn't matter. If your mics
roll off at 18k (or less) anyway it may not be an issue. But honestly my
engineering is not the best here.
