Interesting about 32-bit float, is this just a recent thing? I've been using it for 15 years in Ardour. What difference does it make for you?

consumer-grade field recorders can now capture in 32-bit float (I used Zoom F2s and have a Zoom F6), which reduces/removes our need to set levels beforehand or during. It effectively just has a ridiculous dynamic range.

I guess the technology has just recently made its way onto the scene for these sorts of products.
