Hi there
Ive been using the pro version for quite some time now, and always importing the convertet 88.2 - 44.1 file back into Protools for 24 to 16 bit convertion + dithering thus the R8 dosent provide noiceshaping. BUT reading here for the first time to day, i realized perhaps this is overshooting the target.
Im concerned about audio quality but on the other hand my songs isnt about to get airtime any time soon :-)
Should i just use the flat dither in R8 down to 16bit and drop the extra round in Protools...
What is your opinion ?

If you do not need peak-limiting, I would simply use r8brain's dither.

Thanks Aleksey ! I dont peak limit. I keep my peak levels at approx. -5 dbfs.
Should i do it in one or two steps ? Meaning convert first and then reduce to 16bits while dithering...
