Sorry Sean, I agree 100% :) My phrasing was rather flippant, what I
meant was there's no difference in the "depth of string instruments" -
in other words no _positive_ difference. But yes, resampling from 44.1
to 48 is a wacky thing to do unless you really have to. Or your company
name begins with "R" :)
