you might have problems with aliasing.
the up/downsampling does very little (to no) pre-filtering.
upsampling: depending on the argument the iolet~s will do linear 
interpolation between 2 original samples at the best(!!!); this is not 
very good; the default is zero-padding which is really awful (but is 
there by intent, as you will very soon notice, that "something" is going on)
downsampling: if i remember correctly, it just takes every nth sample 
(even if you specify "linear" there is no smoothing or whatever)

so make sure that you filter your signal before/after down/upsampling.
