Re: Is this program accurate with 24 bit 48 khz as it's with 16 bit 44 khz?

The "problem" with 48kHz files is, that FTF will expect frequencies up to 24,000 Hz.
(For 44kHz, the max. frequency is "only" 22.000 Hz)
A "clean" 48kHz file should show a spectum up to 24.000 Hz. If it only shows frequencies up to 22.000 Hz, then FTF assumes that it is not a "true 48 Khz" version, because it looks like it's just "upscaled" from a (high quality) 44 kHz verison.
However, it **IS** a high quality file,
You can use the options dialog to "allow cutoffs above .... Hz" if you feel that your 48 kHz versions are real.
If you rip them from a CD that was mastered at 44 kHz, you simply can't get a better version. (but it does not increase the quality)

yeah, that spectogram looks absolutely OK.
The song is very silent, and from some point it's hard to distinguish between "silence" and "total absence" of a signal.
