Default Tracking at 24/96 vs 24/48

Recently I did a remastering job, turning a 2-track analog tape from 1980 into a CD. I did the transfer at
96kHz, and did all the editing at that rate (including topping and tailing, level adjustments, and the like).
It sounded excellent.

Then I converted the sample rate to 44.1, which it needed to be for CD. And all that wonderful sound...
went away. The result sounded as grubby as an early-years digital recording. "


Anyone wanna venture what happened in his
second paragraph? I'm guessing he should
have used a sampling rate that was a multiple
of that used for the deliverable. I.E. 88.2kHz
for a 44.1kHz(CD) product. Is 88.2 avail. as
a rate?
