John, my WAVs are actually stored as 16-bit 44.1kHz. I started out that way as I was making CDs from my vinyl LPs and 45s (and that is the Red Book standard for CDs). I actually record and edit at 32-bit floating 44.1kHz and then downsample on export If I had thought harder about it at the beginning...

Yup - you just need to turn on monitoring - it's a well hidden feature and not obvious to find. Just click once in the recording level meter to turn it on (clicking again will turn it off). There is no visual cue to show whether it is on or off - apart from meters bouncing that is - so if you have m...

Even if you never use them, it's nice to have WAV versions on a thumb drive in a closet. But you will use them ... As storage units get higher and higher packing densities you will want to use uncompressed music files. Who would ever have thought a few years ago that you could get a little single p...
