it is more. after normalizing i had about 8 different sample values (including zero) in the file. the (unnormalized) noise is audible, when the volume is rather high, it is at least 2 times louder than the "natural" noisefloor of my soundcard/amp/speakers. ...and i have archived all my music as flac using audacity, since 2006. fortunately i should still have the original 32bit float files somwhere in my cdr-pile... it is also explained here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Dither > Personally, I don't understand what's the point of dither in audio. > Maybe it's just an evil plot to make CD quality sound like 8-track > cartridges. bis denn! martin _______________________________________________ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
