WHY 24 BIT AND 192 KHZ?
The larger sampling rates also allow the post-production audio designer to have ultimate flexibility in manipulating the sounds without a significant loss of audio quality. Speed it up, slow it down, raise or lower the pitch, squeeze it any way you want; you can do it all with a much better sounding result. Of course, you can always down-sample to whatever size you want. High Definition video and film is the new standard. High Definition audio is being widely adapted as well. Currently the Blue Ray DVD offers a capacity of 20 gigs in its single-sided modes and the audio can have up to 24 bit 96 kHz sampling rates. We can also predict in the not too distant future the flash card becoming the dominant media for home theater – especially when large storage capacity cards of 50 gigs or more can be produced cheaply. Some predict this could happen less than two years from now, and when that does occur, larger sampling rates for the film and the audio can easily be added, giving consumers muc
