24bits as long as everything is happy and syncs up. Trust your ears 
though with that one. You might prefer the sound of the lower bit 
depth of 16..

Yep thats normal.. logic behind that is you have potentially 128 
voices sounding at once then there has to be enough headroom on the 
digital output to handle it. Theres no headroom above 0dbfs, just 
horrible distortion (that you proberly dont want....??!!) so scale 
everything down db level wise with the digital output.
Not sure what the average is with the xx7, ive never measured it..
