The Mac version generated up from 24bit/48khz tracks. A 550meg 16bit/44.1khz stereo RealTrack is 900meg @ 24bit/48khz stereo and 900meg @ 24bit/44.1khz stereo.

It's less than double so a 4T should do, the Audiophile 2T still has 500GB free, get rid of the wma and you will have more room.

Evenios Enthusiast E Joined: Jun 2015 Posts: 33	i would like to add to the possiblity of having 24 bit in the future if indeed the realtracks/drums are at 24 bit when recorded. sure it will take p more space lol but it would be a nice option to have for mastering and such. really happy with getting the 2020 audiophile edition as great for producers in having just that extra bit of quality when mastering and such and likely great for using direct input mode for guitar tracks to make sure you get the cleanest file possible for further editing with 3rd party amps and such! might mean it will be 4 TB instead of 2 lol but hey ;-) for what you get its worth it!

It might be a lot of work to prepare the files one time, but I suspect those who need them would be willing to pay additional costs for higher quality beyond the audiophile version.
