If you are doing noise removal, don't waste processing and encoding on
inaudible stuff, 44.1kHz is where you need to be working.


The inaudible stuff is actually very useful... transient removal algorithms
can key on the ultrasonic stuff and get better click and pop removal without
as much thumping. It's the one application where having ultrasonic response
can be a big win.


I can see that for impulses- they are better defined. But for normal
non-impulsive noise, no.


Yeah, it doesn't buy you anything for narrowband-gate style noise reduction,
for instance.
