Step-by-Step Guide
- Record at 24-bit/48kHz. This is the odvětví standard with excellent quality and manageable file sizes.
- Set your DAW project to match your nahrávání sample rate. Never mix at a different rate than you recorded.
- At 24-bit, record with špičky at -12 to -18 dBFS. The šum floor is so low that conservative levels are optimal.
- Keep your mix session at the same sample rate as your nahrávání. vyhnout se sample rate conversion during mixování.
- Bounce your mix at 24-bit with -3 to -6 dBFS of headroom. Keep the original sample rate.
- From the mastered 24-bit file, create 16-bit/44.1kHz for standard doručení and 24-bit/48kHz for video.

Často kladené otázky
- Should I record at 44.1kHz or 48kHz?
- Record at 48kHz if your project is for video or if you want the modern standard. Record at 44.1kHz if your project is exclusively for music release and you want slightly smaller files. The audible difference is negligible.
- Is 96kHz worth the extra file size?
- U most projects, no. 48kHz captures the entire audible spectrum. 96kHz may benefit critical acoustic nahrávky and some plugin zpracování, but the difference is subtle. The massive increase in file size and CPU usage is rarely justified.
- What is dithering and when do I need it?
- Dithering adds low-úroveň šum when converting from vyšší to lower bit hloubka (e.g., 24-bit to 16-bit). It prevents quantization distortion. Always apply dithering as the finální step when bouncing to 16-bit.
- Can I change sample rates after nahrávání?
- Yes, but sample rate conversion causes some quality loss. It's better to record at your cíl rate. If you must convert, použití high-quality SRC algorithms (iZotope, Weiss, or built-in DAW conversion).
- Does 32-bit float nahrávání sound better?
- 32-bit float does not improve audio quality during nahrávání. It prevents clipping by allowing levels above 0 dBFS to be recovered. This is useful for unpredictable nahrávání situations but unnecessary for controlled studio nahrávání.
- What sample rate do streaming služby použití?
- Spotify, Apple Music, and most služby deliver at 44.1kHz/16-bit. Tidal and Qobuz offer 96kHz/24-bit hi-res streams. YouTube uses 48kHz. Master at your nahrávání rate and let the platforma handle conversion.
