So you recorded 3 clips in 96k, then converted them to 44k and then back to 96k ?

Unless I miss something in your description, the real point that shows the difference is to record the same source once in 96k, second time in 44k (using the same recording chain). Then to convert 96k file into 44k (using high quality SRC - like r8Brain Pro) and to compare the differences in 44k a to see whether recording originally in 96k brought any sound difference comparing to recording directly in 44k. If you recorded only in 96 k (and that too using rather low end quality converters) and then did just some SRC processes, I am afraid it does not say much - maybe something about the isotope SRC algorithm.
