What is the ratio between 44100 and 48000 Hz?

48000 divided by 44100 is about 1.0884. As an exact rational factor it resamples by 160/147 — upsample by 160, then downsample by 147.

What are the L and M factors?

Rational resampling expresses the conversion as L/M, where L is the upsampling factor and M the downsampling factor, reduced by their greatest common divisor. The tool computes both for you.

Sample rate converter

Find the exact relationship between two audio sample rates — the conversion ratio and the rational L/M resampling factors (upsample by L, downsample by M). Optionally convert a sample count from the source rate to the target rate.

For example, 44.1 kHz to 48 kHz is a ratio of ≈1.0884, or 160/147 in lowest terms. Everything is computed locally in your browser.
