Some WAV files have 32-bit precision. There are three types of 32-bit variables: float, integerical, and long. The more bits that are used, the greater the precision, and the loser the noise floor, but the more disk space and memory is used as well.
32 bit WAV files have less compatibility than WAV files encoded at lower bit rates such as 24 bit WAV files or the common 16 bit WAV files. Till now, only 16 bit WAV files, encoded at sample rate of 44.1 kilohertz (kHz) and the bit depth of 16 bits can open and play fine in Garageband.

Is it possible to encode WAV with a higher bitrate than 320kbps? I don’t see an option for that.
Hello Cam. Thanks for your comments. I am sorry but the 32 bit Audio Converter cannot encode WAV with a higher bitrate than 320kbps. Let me know if you have anything.
