i agree. 24bit will make the filesize 50% bigger, considerably more
than the ~10% difference in 48 vs 44.
16/44 is fine. the SR in pro tools is passable. depends on the value
of the material. if it was Martin Luther King Jr., i'd use the best i
could find. if it's lectures by, say, a university professor, i'd
just let pro tools do the job and 'bounce to disk' with 'convert
after bounce' and set to 44/16 and probably use the mid or
next-higher quality setting.
otherwise, i do like "r8brain", specifically, the free version,
actually, better than the paid-for version.
