I would like to know if creamware has the project to add and/or to increase samplerates in their scope fusion system ?

I use to play synth on live (realtime), and I love extreme quality, playing a modular synth at 196kHz 32bits will be fantastic (aliasing could be microsopic and high frequencies could be very precise).

And I heard things concerning downsampling, are there any samplerate factor of 44.1kHz on work ?

Are those two points actually on project ?

Thank you

naaahh, you're kidding, Faybs :wink:
if you play it realtime and live then you probably play it LOUD :grin:
after a short while neither you or your audience will be able to distinguish any samplerate, let alone 16 from 24 bits...

It really doesn't matter: I once found a totally worn out vinyl record in the cellar.
Curtis Mayfield's 'Superfly' soundtrack. Well, this is THE chance for trying some audio restore soft - I thought and did.
Made a CD copy of the result and went to the record store to trade in the cover because the dude had a orphaned disk.
We played both: my restored against the version of the shop.
He asked me why I was complaining '...sounds like our good ones...' When I showed him the vinyl he was of course a little surprised.
Well, it turned out that the restored version had a better master plate and it's needless to say that this (digitally processed) version sounded way better than the (poorly pressed) vinyl which was played pure analog against it.
I didn't apply any enhancements like compressing or equing btw.

cheers, Tom
