Say I have a 'profile' for transcoding down, using Resample and then Bit Depth.
If I have 24/192 files and want to convert to 24/96 (or 24/48), is it safe to have the 'dither' turned on? Will the software ignore it if it's not actually doing a bit-length conversion?
The manual says,
If you are running 24/192 --> 24/96, will noise be added if 'Dither' was turned on, or will this setting be ignored?Apply Dither can be used to dither when reducing the bit depth, such as after volume normalizing (at 32 bit floating point), dither as reduced in the final stage to 16 bit. Triangular dither is the preferred option.
