Hi and Happy New Year to all you fellow musicians out there. Hope this year brings much success and happiness to you and your families !
I've decided to put all my "riffs I've collected over the years" to a CD. So I'm baking a CD this year. I've recorded stuff earlier but never really paid attention to the Sample Rate and Bit Rate. Now I've read too much and confused myself.![Really Mad :realmad: :realmad:](/images/smilies/realmad.gif)
Just to be clear, this is not going to Blue-Ray or any such format. Its a standard CD like most musicians make.
So with that in mind, here are my questions:
Thanks in advance for your suggestions / advice / feedback![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Have a great year

So with that in mind, here are my questions:
- Should I record using a sample rate of 96kbps
- Should I record using a bit depth of 24
- Or is this one of those "Hey if your desktop/ DAW supports it, go for it" kinda deals ?
- I'm using some samples that are in 44.1kHz and 16 bit. Does importing that into my 96k/24 bit project cause issues ?
- On a ballpark basis, does it matter to a studio if I send them a 96k/24 file ? I know most studios have their own requirements but they seem open.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions / advice / feedback
Have a great year
