24 Bit Recording with Audiophile 2496 -ACID Product Family

Subject:24 Bit Recording with Audiophile 2496 Posted by: Squiggle Date:11/9/2001 6:30:34 PM Thanks to everyone who replied to my last post - I decided to buy the Audiophile 2496 soundcard and it is awesome but I cannot see how to record in 24 Bit 96 KHz mode - I am only being given the option of 8 or 16 bit. I have been recording a GR33 synth by direct input to the sound card and using sound forge to digitise the audio. Any ideas?
Subject:RE: 24 Bit Recording with Audiophile 2496 Reply by: Iacobus Date:11/9/2001 10:59:12 PM Only Sound Forge 5 (not Sound Forge 5 XP Studio) and ACID Pro 3 can record in 24-bit at any given sample rate (up to 192 kHz but the Audiophile can do "only" up to 96). (Earlier versions of Sound Forge, I believe, could not record at 24-bit but earlier versions of ACID Pro could.) You've got the hardware part down, now you just need the software part. HTH, Iacobus

Also there are ways to force the rate on some of the inputs, Check out some of the How-To's on Midimans web site, they help a little more with configuring the card. See ya, Rockit

I have been working on some new music stuff at 16 Bit 96 KHz with this sound card and I must say it craps on my SB Live audio card. Cheers Squiggle

Amazing to think how far home studio technology (both hardware and software) has gone in just a few years. (Kudos to Rockit for pointing out the S/PDIF issue. Forgot to mention that.) Iacobus
