im kind of back tracking to the begining of the thread here but i want to make sure i understand. after i record all my tracks and mis them all, get my effects all set etc., i need to mix it all down to two tracks. i use cubasis vst, which i think might be somewhat on the same line to cubase, but the only option i've found was to simply export all audio tracks to a wav. file. is that the same thing or am i missing a step here by not mixing down to the stereo tracks first.
also, my sound card has 24 bit capabilities but when making a cd are you supposed to export to 24bit or 16bit? when i tried to export to 24 bit i couldnt get the .wav file to play at all. it only plays when i export to 16 bit. whats the deal with that?
