Hi, everyone. I'm just trying to get a round-about idea of what the best recording level is in logic.
To put it another way: Should I be aiming for 0 to gt the hottest sound possible? |

Digital Distortion = Very very bad.
Recording at 24 bits will also give you more bits to "describe the waveform". You'll have to convert back to 16 bits to burn a cd that will play in a cd player. But the extra resolution you get while you're recording and mixing is worth it. Scott |
