Default Re: 32bit or 24bit

I aim at -10 with the classic PT metering. Unlike analog, the error is having the levels too high as opposed to too low which was the classic problem with tape.

It took me a few years to get that notion through my head. What finally brought it home was a friend who was having trouble getting his levels up using his new 001. His mixes that were peaking at -40 sounded way better than my clients who had mixed on an SSL with all high-end gear.
