I`m wondering how much of a difference recording in 24 bit makes to the quality of sound? I`m looking to recording maser quality tracks!! Is 24-bit nessecary?

It makes a subtle difference. If your hardware is capable of it, there's absolutely no reason to record at 16 bits. Record at 24 and use dither at the last stage when you go to 16 bits.
