Hi All,
Should be a simple question to answer here: I have most of a song tracked at 16 bit using Digital Performer 6, however the vocalist wanted to track his parts at his house. He uses Pro Tools (10 or 11) and we recorded his vocals at 24 bit. When we are finished with tracking I intend to bounce the files individually and import them into my Digital Performer session. My question is, do I simply bounce all of the tracks individually at unity to 16 bit when working with Pro Tools, or do I need to dither them first? Since I track and mix in 16 bit this would be my first experience with dithering if I need to do so and I am not well read on the topic...is it as simple as putting a dithering plugin on the master fader track? I obviously will be doing processing and mixing the tracks once they are imported into my DP session.
Many thanks in advance for helping me out! Also I do intend to switch to 24 bit tracking once I'm finished with this EP as I now understand the benefits of doing so.
