hi

i need to record from a pro usb microphone voice ,  and i need to record a friend of mine that plays violin with another expensive usb microphone on a different audio project (in short  i need to do 3 different job with 3 different hardware )

1) for a job i need to record only voice

2) about the vionil performance separate job , i need to record only violin no voice ,different microphone , no mix , need to record only her pre-audiition

3) third job rip some vinyls

and i want to rip some vinyls via usb ,a friend of mine give me for a while a pro-ject usb vinyl player

now , when i start audition cc and create a new audio file , i can select sample rate ,chanenels and bit depth

ok the default is

sample rate 44100

channels stereo

bit of depth 32(float )

i guess it's a good idea keep bit of depth 32float maybe for voice recording i can select mono

but about sample rate ?

about voice , violin and usb pro-ject player should i keep 44100 or raise to 48000 or up?

seeing i will edit these files

as you can understand i'm concerning mostly about sameple rate

thanks

No, stick with 44.1k unless your final result is for a video soundtrack. That's the only time you need 48k, as a rule. 44.1k gives you a frequency response that extends beyond that of humans already - you don't need to go any higher!

As far as the bit depth is concerned, if you record using the 32-bit settings, you get the most it's possible to get out of your sound device, which is 24-bit int. Audition stores this as 32-bit Floating Point, but with no scaling bits set until you alter the amplitude of your file. So basically yes, you're doing the right thing,.

    However the sample rate may be determined by the USB mic since some of them have fixed sample rates. In that case you have to set Audition to match the USB mic's fixed sample rate.

    As for vinyl ripping you will need a completely different audio interface to get the audio from a turntables pickup into Audition. We would need to know what you will be using to play the records in order to be able to give further advice.

      As he originally stated, he has a USB pro-ject TT - doesn't need anything else at all.
