位分辨率
允许您指定您在CUBASE录制音频文件的分辨率。根据由您的音频硬件的交付位分辨率选择记录格式。可用的选项有16位，24位和32位的浮动。
注意
当你与效果录制时，考虑设置位分辨率为32位浮点。这可以防止在录制的文件削波（数字失真），并保持音质绝对纯净。效果处理和输入通道电平或EQ的变化在32位浮点格式完成的。如果你在16或24位记录，音频将被转换为当它被写入到一个文件中的此较低的分辨率。作为结果，信号可能劣化。这是独立的音频硬件的实际分辨率。即使从音频硬件的信号具有16位的分辨率，信号将32位浮点后的效果被添加到输入信道。
越高位分辨率，较大的文件和多个应变置于磁盘系统上。如果这是一个问题，您可以降低记录格式设置。
bit resolution
allows you to specify the resolution of the audio files that you record in CUBASE. Select the record format according to the bit resolution that is delivered by your audio hardware. the available options are 16bit,24bit,and 32bit float.
note
when you record with effects,consider setting the bit resolution to 32bit float. this prevents from clipping (digital distortion) in the recorded files and keeps the audio quality absolutely pristine. Effect processing and level or EQ changes in the input channel are done in 32Bit float format . if you record at 16 or 24Bit,the audio will be converted to this lower resolution when it is written to a file. as a result , the signal may degrade. this is independent of the actual resolution of your audio hardware. even if the signal from the audio hardware has a resolution of 16bit,the signal will be 32bit float after the effects are added to the input channel.
the higher the bit resolution ,the larger the files and the more strain is put on the disk system. if this is an issue ,you can lower the record format setting.
