Bit depths and float resolution

Music Creator supports all common bit depths. Music Creator’s 32-bit mixing provides full floating-point resolution for extended dynamic range, and precise audio processing.

A Music Creator project can contain files of different bit depths. You can specify different bit depths for playing back, recording, importing, exporting, and rendering audio (bouncing, freezing, applying effects). To play back or record at a specific bit depth, your sound card must support that bit depth.

To find the bit depth of clips in a project

Do one of the following:

Right-click a clip, choose Associated Audio Files on the pop-up menu, and examine the Bit Depth column.

Go to Project > Audio Files command to open the Project Files dialog box, and examine the Bit Depth column.

The following topics show you how and why to choose bit depths for various operations.
