24 bit recordings (via storage as 32 bit float files) take up twice as much
storage space on the harddisk as 16 bit recordings. But with current harddisk
storage capacities, it works out as a good compromise when one considers
the increase in quality.
High resolution audio files can be imported and exported as 24 bit WAV files,
enabling trouble-free file exchange with other high quality audio systems, such
as MAGIX Samplitude.
Digital transfer
With the recording function, digital audio data can be transferred to the hard
drive through a digital interface (e.g. S/PDIF or ADAT).
ADAT or DAT recorders normally produce data with a sampling rate of 48 kHz.
For a CD project with 44.1 kHz you must convert the sampling rate. This is
carried out in real time by MAGIX Audio Cleaning Lab SE. The digital signal is
read at 48 kHz, but is automatically converted and inserted into the project as
an audio file at 44.1 kHz.
For this to occur correctly, you must first set the sample rate of the incoming
signal in the recording dialog. Click on the "Dev." button in the recording
dialog. In the following dialog (sound card characteristics), set the audio
recording formats supported by the sound card.
Now, connect the digital output of your recorder to the digital input of your
sound card, and now start recording!
Record properties
This dialog provides you with information regarding the currently selected
sound card. Supported audio formats of the sound card and the sound card
driver's information is also displayed.
Driver system: Here you can switch between driver types (MME and WDM).
Note: Adjust this setting only if you have problems with audio playback or
recording.
Special: Some sound cards or audio devices (for example, USB turntables) do
not offer mixer support. With the "Monitor input signal" option you can listen to
the sound during recording (monitoring).
"Filter DC offset" allows you to remove the DC offset section (view page 85) of
the input
signal, even during recording.
