44.1 khz? So the glossies say. But has anybody seen anything - hardware,
software - that can handle over 22 khz?? Even Farallon's excellent SoundEdit
program only handles up to 22khz.

BTW, I know about the expensive NuBus boards that do everything short of
signing you up for a record contract. But in the long run it would be 
cheaper to buy a Roland sampler than one of these boards plus a Mac II to 
drive it.....
