Upsampling ups the sample rate (doubles it), not the bits.

This video describes why this is important:

thank you msmcleod

is this option on plugin have to do with [upsample] buton?

[msmcleod]

Yes, only the plugins that have "Upsample On Render" or "Upsample on Playback" will be affected by the x 2 button.

[martsave martin s]

Upsampling runs the plugin at 2x the current sample rate in Cakewalk.
The result really depends on how the plugin is coded but there are cases where upsampling changes the sound because it gets rid of aliasing artifacts introduced by the plugin DSP at lower sample rates. It works both ways - sometimes the "artifacts" may sound better to you since the sound designer may have tailored the presets at 44.1K. So use your ears and enable upsampling where it improves the sound to you.

This feature came about when @Craig Anderton was playing around with amp sims and found that they sounded very different at different sample rates. So we built this feature to allow users to easily run plugins at higher sample rates without unnecessarily running the entire project at high rates.

thanks for the explanations Noel

i found  what is causing the "filter" effect,it's a compressor that is on a parallele-compressor-buss..

i tried another compressor and it's ok

 

thanks

It can also make a huge difference with synthesizers. Here's an explanation of how it works.

I also think you'll find the audio example in this video VERY revealing!

I know this is an old thread, but I had a question that was related. I was going to add 2x oversampling to Melodyne. Since it is in an ARA window, it does not have the oversampling option. If I read the docs on oversampling correctly - if I add a VST copy of Melodyne in the project, then all the Melodynes in that project would use up sampling? Would this apply to since this is an ARA / VTS  and not a VST / VST?

ARA not ARIA

[martsave martin s]

right click at the top of the plugin,then check those setting

it will do it for all instance of the plugin

I am referring to the ARA version. It does not have the menu for upsample. I did not know if I loaded one VST version would it affect the ARA version and make it upsample.

You're thinking about ARA.

ARIA is a sfz player engine.
