I am reducing the bit depth of some FLACs from 24 to 16bit (maybe keeping 24, I am not sure) and the sample rate from 192k to 48k (per research it’s suggested to reduced in common divisors, so div by 4 is 48k).
The situation is that I am not sure what kind of dither to apply as per research it shows that the less intrusive distortion should be the triangular with shape option, however I have no idea about what shape form, extended shape form, intensity or if I should use adaptive mode.
I hope any expert in the community can give me some suggestions or explain a little more about these options to keep these FLACs as good as possible. Thanks!
There is literally zero reason to use WAV over FLAC, it has no compression or native tagging support.
Well I’m not so informed about FLAC, but he wants to save space so cd 16bit 44.1khz quality in what ever file format I would say. But better get some storage
