There's two "64 bit" in Reaper, the internal processing of the audio and the glue/freeze setting. The former is how the audio stream/processing is handled internally (IIRC), the latter is the file when gluing and so on.

For gluing etc. if 32 bit or 64 bit float, so long as the audio is less than about 1000 > 0 dbFS, you can just turn it back down and all will be fine, which is great. Which means you can never render/freeze/glue and clip the audio in the actual file it is going to.

How the audio is captured through the converter is a different thing.
