Any update on reaper and 176k?

Wow, 176 kHz? We’ll definitely take a look. Off the top of my head, we’re not aware of many users working at that sample rate. When recording drift cars for a major video game, we used 192 kHz and 32 bit depth to give ourselves plenty of headroom without worrying about unexpected SPL spikes. Beyond specialised applications like that -or perhaps processing recordings from high-end digital microphones in spaces such as the V&A Hall - I’m curious what workflow is driving the need for 176 kHz in a DAW.

Audiophile quality recordings of acoustic instruments with analogue mics (Schoeps, B&K).

Interesting @Tristan would you mind checking this on Monday please?

6

At the moment, SEQ crashes when I close the GUI.

The higher sample rates make a difference on the clarity of instruments with a lot of delicate top end.

A simple test is to record a 12-string at 44.1k, and then 176k and then listen back and compare while focusing on the top end.

Hi Any update to the crash situation?

Hi @gregb We’ve confirmed it. Can’t give you any ETA at the moment but will have some news soon!
