If you had a choice to master a hard rock record recorded at 44.1 24 bitbut my mix rig is through a burl convertor and I can record at any sample ratewould you take the higher resolution ?thoughts ?
let say it againthe record is ALREADY recorded at 44.1I have a separate rig for mixdownThis is not the playback rigI am mixing through an analog console so I am going into a burl convertor for my a/d to the mix rigI can record the mixes at any sample rate I chooseandI was wondering what as mastering engineers, you would optimally choosea 44.1 file or a higher resolution file ?

If you are only mixing, you will be forced to stay with a multiple of the original session...
Think about it... would you rather have 44.1 THOUSAND dollars in your bank or 176.4 thousand???
And please what is your name? So I can know whom I owe beers to at AES!!!!
That would be Ron Saint Germain, legendary producer / engineer and moderator of Whatever Works.
Well, you never know on the InternetS. I once talked philosophy with "Ben Kenobi".
For clarification, the reason I said that you are forced to stay with a multiple of the original sampling rate is because I am using ONE master clock (the Antelope Isocrone Atomic Clock), which, although it has 8 outputs, it uses a multiplier to route a different (higher) rate to 2 of those. This is similar to other Master Clocks.
