It is because when you are tracking at this bit depth and sample rate even a 2-second audio sine wave (the simplest form of audio wave) is already 1.46MB in file size.
Below are common sample rates used in recording:Īnd below are the common audio bit depths:īut for most home studio applications, selecting 32-bit float and 192 KHz is not practical. Ideally the best sample rate and audio bit depth for recording is as high as possible as your recording software and hardware can handle.
