My computer recording software (Cubase VST) gives me the choice of 16 or 24 bit samples (at 44.1 kHz), and I can definitely hear the difference on the 24 bit tracks, even with my cheap equipment. 24 bit takes up more disk space though, but it's worth it. I think the general consensus out there is to leave the 96khz sampling rate stuff to the pros - the consumer level stuff isn't built to handle the huge bandwidth.

Ken,
I completely agree about recording at 24 bit. I currently record at 44.1KHz and 24 bit because I want the dynamics associated with 24 bit. I believe all the minidisc recorders use compression algorithms, but not all of the hard disk recorders do. Even the little FD-4 used no data compression. David |

Thanks for these informative posts, guys. I have been thinking about home recording but was confused about just what to do. I was going to spend a ton of money on a new computer setup, but after reading your posts I think one of the stand-alone digital recorders will do me just fine.
