In Reply to: A DXD converter is 384KHz PCM with 32 bit precision math capability posted by tailspn on March 4, 2007 at 17:42:53:
DXD is 352800 samples/sec and does not specifically refer to a word length. In practice, it can be anywhere from 16-24 bit integer or 32 bit floating point. The 32 bit float is only for internal calculations in the workstation itself.As for the rest of your post, I wouldn't generalize recordings based on the workstation used - there are too many other variables that matter more than that, e.g. mics, placement, preamps, aesthetic preferences (which would include choice of converters), etc.
