Bit depth greater than 16 bit on the final (already mixed) track, what significance can it have in view of the indiscriminate use of compression in recordings and the presence of background noise in our homes? And if you are 50 years old, you will not hear sounds above the 12 kHz… But regardless of where the listener lives and how old he or she is, it would be nice to have clip-free recordings, instead of the commonly found ridiculous amounts of digital clipping… Unfortunately, almost all (except perhaps DSD) digital recording formats are defenseless against the carelessness of the producer. This is the only thing I envy for fans of vinyl records, they are necessarily free from clipping (otherwise they would not be playable, at least physically).
