Sample Rate Question.
I'm wondering what Sample Rate most people on the AGF set to record acoustic guitar. My understanding is that for CDs 44.1 kHz works and for film it's best to jump up to 48 kHz. Beyond that is there a qualitative reason to go higher? I have a vague awareness of the Nyquist - Shannon Sampling Theorem but given that the frequency range of a guitar is roughly 80 Hz up to 800 Hz it's hard to see the advantage of a higher Sample Rate for our instrument.
With that out of the way there are several guitarists who regularly contribute to this part of the forum and make great sounding recordings. I know that the Sample Rate is just one factor among a many but would still appreciate hearing what setting folks here prefer.
FWIW - I'm recording with an Apogee Quartet > MBP 2015, 15" > Logic Pro X (10.1.1)
Thanks,
Trevor
