I am carrying out simple mastering within my DAW. My question is, on mixdown should i export to 16bit or 24? i realize mastering houses request 24bit Wavs, do they then mixdown to 16?
my project setup is 44.100kHz sample rate and 16 bit Format
what would you say then is the most ideal setting for the project setup
24 bit - 44.100kHz ??
my computer has a mediumish spec...... just read this too, interesting stuff
24bit vs 16bit, the myth exploded!
i am planning to export this as 24 bit for mastering... am i correct in saying that i would then need to dither to 16 bit. if so would i also need to change the project setup to 16 bit as well? i will be using cubases' UV22hr
cheers
i plan to export it for mastering though and the usual bit rate requested is 24. or is it ok to master a 16 bit? applying no dithering obviously because it is already 16............??
many thanks
