GeoSlv Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I just learned about wave64 and read that it's a true 64-bit format. But my music sample is 24-bit. It's not 64-bit music is it. Link to comment
Northern_Canuck Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 From what I understand of the Wave64 format uses a 64 bit file format to create larger file size than the standard wave format (32 bit). The wav64 format has nothing to do with recording bit-depth. Link to comment
Apesbrain Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 It's not 64-bit music is it. No, it's not. "Normal" WAV can handle up to 32 bits. You'll be fine with it. Link to comment
GeoSlv Posted March 5, 2017 Author Share Posted March 5, 2017 Thanks, well I don't understand everything about this. Anyway I like to record with 32-bit fp. I made a related comment under DAC. Link to comment
audiventory Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 There are two types of 64-bit WAV by supported maximal size of file. 1. Sony's WAV64. There used 64 bit header/block's fields (offset, block size, etc.). 2. RF64. It is usual WAV with additional blocks (chunks) and certain values into standard block fields for recognizing of RF64. Read more > Both RF64 and WAV64 allow file size more 2 GBytes. Bit depths 64-bit integer and float point supported for traditional WAV and AIFF, RF64 and WAV64. Float point formats (32 and 64 bit float point bit depth) recommended use for digital audio processing (music production, mixing, mastering, re-mastering, etc.) only. Because DAC have native support only integer bit depths.
