The focusrite will clock the ADCs at whatever rate you select, it will not

resample. However, the low pass filter at 44.1k will have more effect on

the in band audio than at 48k. Do a listening test, if you can't tell the

difference with cymbals and such, I guess it doesn't matter. If your mics

roll off at 18k (or less) anyway it may not be an issue. But honestly my

engineering is not the best here.
