im not sure why i have to tell you the advantages of recording and mixing
a project higher then 16 bit.
it is widely known.
but anyway in 24 bit, you would have to mix 48 db (!!!!)
lower to equal 16 bit resolution. Digital summing busses go to pieces if you are running each channel peaking high.
it comes down to headroom.
funny alot of the music made with the virus goes to vinyl
and vinyl mastering i have dealt with let me go 24/96.
i feel i have more control over the mix @higher resolutions.
its smaller increments.higher resolution.
makes simple sence.
i wouldnt have a problem if it would let me use my host @ 96k
it wouldnt matter if the virus streams are 44k.
but the problem is i would have to turn my whole hosts resolution
down and i have gotten so used to the higher level....
so that would be a real drag.
still havent got confirmation that i cant do it..
i want the host resolution (nuendo 3)
project set for 24/96
so all my mixing and effects are done @that resolution
is it possible to have the usb streams in at there resolution of 16/44
at the same time?
if this is possible i will be not let down at all by the virus.
but im not thinking this is possible.
it is my understanding that i would have to use the host resolution of
16/44 to be able to use the "total intergration"
i hope i am wrong. and it is possible.
what i cant figure out is why have 24/192 converters if you cant use that resolution?
