< > Yeah 44100Hz/16/stereo eats up space perdy quick, which is why < > I'd like to try or hear from someone whose tried the various FYI, protable casette recorders 3db point is 11-14KHz for the better ones and they typical ones used 9.5-12.5KHz is more realistic. Sampling above 20Khz is wasting bandwidth and recording time. Even the fastest audio formats (sudding and TARBEL187bytes/sec) had bandwidths below 5KHz. Allison
