Rob, My M-audio 2496 supposedly supports 32 bits , but I am just a bit afraid that it is merely Sound Forge tricking me into thinking it supports it. The files will open and play, but what has Sound Forge done to them to cause them to play. If they have done something strange, as they are of a want to do in this regard, then they are definitely able to support some kind of conversion to 24 bit, although when I load a 32 bit file and look at the properties, it still says it is 32 bit. It actually says 32 bit (ieee float). Who knows what evil lurks in the innards of Sound Forge?

The Audiophyle 192 sound card supports a sample rate of 192 KHz; others may also. Rob >>> hamitcampos@xxxxxxxxx 10/10/07 03:04PM >>> Hello everyone. It's Hamit Campos again. I was wandering if any one could tell me what sound cards will support the highest recording settings in SR? These according to the version I have are: a 192000 sample sized file, and the bit rate being at 32. I tried these settings format settings on both my computers and both of them won't support them. So do any of you guys know which sound cards will? That's it for now, hope to hear from you soon.
