That's true, but I even tried two different methods of conversion, and - on my PC at least - it STILL puts the system over the top, resouce-wise, to try & run a particular project at that samplerate... however Mr. Weiss was talking about the conversion process ALONE, and at the time of tha post I was referring to not the conversion process itself at all, but the resources required to run the project & it's plugins, etc at 96k vs. 88.2k.astroman wrote: This is surely not my cup of math, but the load increase you report does in no way corelate to a 'slightly higher demand of resources'.
It does seem strange that there's that much of a resouce hit, I'll admit; but I've done it twice now using different methods of conversion, just to see if I f*ked something up the first time, and in both instances the project goes from running fine at around 60% of my CPU meter, to pretty much full lockup & not being able to run at all at 96k... it's not the disk streaming aspect, either - that meter in Cubase stays fairly low, but the CPU usage maxes out at 100%.

We need to get as many DAWs and external hardware boxes involved in this as possible, cause the more gear you know how to throw at a mix, the better the possiblity the mix may suck, or not..........sorta' like an extreme sport.
