RE: High Resolution - Fact or Fiction?

Tony, that all makes sense. I wonder, though, if you're gaining anything useful by using 24 bits, given the limited dynamic range of the cassette (typically). You could save some disk space by using 16 bits, and possibly not hear a difference.

I record live concerts at 88/24 typically with just a pair of Schoeps condensers, using 24 bits mostly so I have less noise for subsequent processing (EQ, etc.).
