found out that YouTube's OPUS codec resamples everything to 48 khz regardless


Yep. 48kHz audio has been the standard for AV over 30 years now. The only reasons for 44.1 anymore are a) compatibility for old stand-alone recorders that can’t do anything else or b) mastering for CDs. I do both but downsample as needed.

There are some AV clients that require me to deliver 96kHz but I always know that before I start a project. Otherwise, I work in 48k only.
