Hmmm and I thought it would be simple. . .

A project came in that was started elsewhere in ProTools as 16 bit. The feel of the beds is good but I have to redo all the vocs, guitars and I would like to work in 24 bit. How do I take a 16 bit session and convert it up to 24 bit, while retaining everything that is already recorded (including what is the the audio list)?

I would have thought this would be built in functionality (easy) but I don't see a reasonable path. What am I missing?

I am working with a MixPlus and PT5.00. What is the shortest path to this end.

Thanks . . .Howard

Use the function Save Session Copy... in the File menu and set the bit rate.

I guess my instincts where right. . .it was simple.

Thanks for the response Rail, my Mac is crunching the bits right now.
