To me the
answer lies on what audio application does:

- recording single/multi-tracks : integer and/or floating-point?
- playback of multi-tracks : integer and/or floating-point?


The audio application gets/sends buffers with interger numbers
from/to the sound card. With mit AMD CPU @ 1400 MHz the system
load is less than 10% during both recording and playback.

- playback with effects : integer and/or floating-point?
- mix-down : integer and/or floating-point?


This is in control of the audio application software. Adobe Audition
uses floating point procedures for all kind of processing.
