Ah yes, I'd forgotten about that little quirk. Hard to believe
in a supposedly modern DAW, isn't it?

I have no doubt that the Rosetta goes up to 24/192 -- what I meant
was that AFAIK the Rosetta has no **display** that will show
you the **actual number of active bits** in the content that
you're playing (at whatever sample rate).

Yes, I think you're probably OK. But I would still spot-check
a few files using Audition's Analyze->Statistics menu (or whatever
it's called exactly) and find out the **actual number of active
bits** in the files. Just for your own peace of mind.
A WAV (or FLAC) file is just a **container** -- its label
can claim to be "32-bit floating point" but the file can still
have content that's only actually toggling 16 bits.
If the "actual number of bits used" box on the "Waveform Statistics"
screen shows "24", then you know you've got real 24-bit files.
