About to rip records via my SL-1200 MK2 / DL-103 / V-LPS via an E-MU 0404USB into Audition CS5.5 at 44.1khz 32bit. Anyone tell me of a good reason 44.1 khz is not enough to capture all the recorded information I can hear on vinyl? Post production will be limited to clickrepair, a sub 20hz filter and normalising the whole album to reasonable levels as the recording levels are peaking to a max of -6db and it's quieter than digital playback of CD / MP3 ( even ones that have not been 'loudnessed'). I hear talk that musical signals beyond 20khz will be lost as their harmonics exist below this but in my understanding the A-D is still capturing these harmonics but just cutting the inaudible ultrasonic in the file output?
