Default Re: Anybody know what the max sampling rate of PT 8.0 LE is?

If you stay with LE 8, your choices are limited.

The software itself is limited to 96k, so it wouldn't matter what hardware you used. You would need to upgrade to PT 9 or 10 to be able to do 192k, and then you can use any interface you want.

Having said all that, there is very little reason to record above 96k. There have been a zillion discussions about it, but the consensus is that there is very little advantage vs. the extra processing power and storage requirements.

BUT, if you really want to, one of the best things I can recommend is to get the new Mbox 3 Pro bundled with PT9, which gives a free upgrade to 10. Both the hardware and the software would be compatible with 192k recording, and the conversion is gigantic jump in quality from what you have, regardless of what sample rate you used. You will be far less likely to feel that you need a separate converter with this.
