will using lower sampling frequency IRs be lower quality than hi res ones? do 24/96 irs even exist. all the free ones seem to be 48. is the difference even audible? can anyone suggest where to find some hi res ones?
thanks!

I sometimes use the Logic "Space Designer" which allows you to change the "speed" according to the ir sample rate. If you have a 96khz sample ir you can halve it to get a double sized reverb for example. Does your IR plug in allow you to do that?

it does, i'm using space designer also... sometimes IR-L, but what i'm wondering is say i have a project with 96 kHz audio, i want to throw some reverb on it, some of these new free IR's i downloaded are only 48 or even 44.1 kHz responses. will this cause any lower quality sound than using a 96 kHz IR? i.e. weird quantizations, jitters, other digital gremlins that i have no idea even existed...?

Try it, you should be fine as S.D. Converts on the fly to the current session sample rate...turtlejon1 wrote:it does, i'm using space designer also... sometimes IR-L, but what i'm wondering is say i have a project with 96 kHz audio, i want to throw some reverb on it, some of these new free IR's i downloaded are only 48 or even 44.1 kHz responses. will this cause any lower quality sound than using a 96 kHz IR? i.e. weird quantizations, jitters, other digital gremlins that i have no idea even existed...?

well, it works. i get reverb through it. but my question is does it lower the quality of the sound to use a lower res IR. i can't always hear the differences in things this small, but it might be because i don't know exactly what to listen for.... or being a drummer, or having less than optimal monitoring conditions....
thanks
