going from high to lower bitrate=no problem
downsampling=ok, but potential is high for aliasing and other anomolies.

i'm glad you can afford to use a whole hd for one song.....

thanks for the fast response.

I see what you're getting at with Aliasing, though I don't know exactly how that translates into audio.

As for a whole hard drive for one song? it's just a 400GB RAID with the option for another 400 (or more, dependent upon how Medea sets things up). Granted, I haven't done any recording at 24/96 so I don't know exactly how much space it takes up, but I can't imagine it being more than for DV Video.

On that note, I'm going to test it out, and see just how much one minute of actual stereo 24/96 audio takes up.

Okay, I've done a few recordings (nothing worth mentioning) and downmixed to stereo 24/96 using Riff Wav codec (I'm hoping that's a raw codec, but I can't seem to find another one that would be RAW in the VERY limited selection provided by Sonar), and I get 32.9MB for a 1 minute audio clip in stereo, so I'm assuming that's half that for one minute of a single track of 24/96 audio, or 16 1/2MB per minute. Does that seem about accurate? or am I completely missing something here (like the riff wav codec being anything BUT raw)?

The video that we're working with pipes in at a nauseating 1GB per minute (for the highest quality before downsampling to DVD quality MPEG2 at around 3-6Mbps), so the audio consumption isn't so bad for our setup, I'm guessing.

Be well,
