Re: 24-Bit Recording Status

You may know that for this test Edit ➝ Preferences ➝ Quality ➝ Default Sample Rate must be set to 24-bit . In order to check for true 24 bit without special equipment, I recommend to record any signal, possibly noise only, and to export is as a 32 bit WAV file. In this WAV-file you can easily figure...

Re: 24-Bit Recording Status

Hi Gale, I made such a recording and added it to the article I mentioned above ( http://beis.de/Elektronik/DA2USB/AudacityMMEvsWASAPI/Audacity_MME_vs_WASAPI.html ). I describe all details there, too. The direct link is http://beis.de/Elektronik/DA2USB/AudacityMMEvsWASAPI/Audacity_MME_vs_WASAPI.html#...

Re: 24-Bit Recording Status

Hi guys, I prepared a website with detailed explanations, information and screenshots in order to make clear what I observe under which circumstances and what I'm talking about. Maybe it helps in any way. Please have a look at: http://beis.de/Elektronik/DA2USB/AudacityMMEvsWASAPI/Audacity_MME_vs_WAS...

Re: 24-Bit Recording Status

but natively it's 44100 With Audacity set to MME and 192000 Hz project rate I can make recordings from a 192 kHz source, and I can record frequencies up to close to 96 kHz. And the recorded signal is not an alias or something like that, it is the original signal. So the signal is obviously not resa...

Re: 24-Bit Recording Status

Cyrano, thank you for your firmware offer. I'm still not really certain whether the Emagic a) would work at all on my PC and b) whether it would produce a 96/24 stereo signal. It should be a USB Audio Class 1 (UAC1) device and I expect such a device to be plug-and-play. Reading http://mtippach.probo...

Re: 24-Bit Recording Status

Would this one do: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Emagic-A-2-6-V1-7a-USB-mobilen-Audio-Interface-funktionsfahig-/311521799778?hash=item4888256e62 ? The price doesn't hurt too much... What about the mysterious firmware loader, would I have to fear that it wouldn't work without it? I read a test ( http://www....

Re: 24-Bit Recording Status

I ought to try a different 96/24-capable UAC1 interface, but do such devices exist? And I ought to buy it just to try it...
Brilliant idea: I'll try it on a different PC, that's easy for me. Just in the other room...

Re: 24-Bit Recording Status

I downloaded and installed the latest version of Audacity, v 2.1.0. Audacity records and plays back fine for me at 96 kHz in WASAPI mode. Here I'm standing helpless. I tried 2.1.0 too, but it is the same as in 2.1.2: 48/24 (WASAPI) works fine, 96/24 creates "Error opening sound device.". BTW, when ...

Re: 24-Bit Recording Status

I tried out Goldwave, not too long, but I needed to know a little more than just that it works with 96/24. Of course the first thing that happens when you try a new software is that you miss the good ideas and functions that you learned to know before. Than you start to learn to know the good ideas ...
