Recording vocals in 16 Bit

[Aparich]

I may have to record vocals in 16 bit with a USB yeti due to my circumstances and I’m not able to get my regular condenser microphone from storage in another location.
What’s the best recording level to use for 16 bit, doesn’t it have to be as high as possible due to the noise floor?

Whatever you record, record in 24 bits! And the point is not the difference in the dynamic range, but the fact that you will continue to process the track with plugins and edit.
Believe me, you can only hear the difference at the end, when it’s too late to change something.

I second that recording in 24 bits would be a better way to go.
