Hi,
I have bought an M-Audio Delta44 to use with Cubase to increase recording clarity/headroom etc. I assumed the best setting then was to record at 96k/24 bit as per the spec of the card.
To maximise quality in clean tracks and resolution of reverb plugins (which still sound muddy) should I be using 32bit float?

thanks
Mark.

32bit Float to 24bit fixed?

hi all.
did anyone know something about working with 32bit audio files on a macintosh with osx?
in the pc-world this is a everyday-business, but as a apple user this is still a problem!
we're working with Pro Tools but as far as i know Digidesign is not
supporting 32bit yet. even sonic HD dont do that.

So, Nuendo's mixing engine uses the native
CPU's floating point arithmatic for adding
up the individual tracks as well as
processing the effects. Is that right?

Maybe some of you experts (technically or experience/ear wise) can tell clear up some possible misinformation that I have read lately. Sorry if this posts twice, I tried to post before and it didn't show up for some reason.

1)32 bit Float doesn't do what it says it does (always land at 24 bits), and that 48 bit fixed (Pro Tools) method is better. Whats the reality?
