[maxmsp] 24 bit?

hello,

this might be a really elementary question, but i can't find it in  
the documentation.
is it possible to make 24bit recordings (with sfrecord~, for example)?
mine always come out as 16 bit even though under audio midi set-up  
(i'm on a mac), it is configured for 24 bit.
is there a way to configure settings so they are 24 bit recordings by  
default?
is this something that needs to be done within max or elsewhere?

thank you!

corey
