Hi! I just downloaded Britney Spears’ album in lossless format, but there’s a cutoff at 21kHz on the spectrogram (the entire album is like this). Then, I changed the source and downloaded it from Qobuz, but it still has that cutoff. Her other albums can easily reach 22kHz. Is there a reason behind this, or is it just a mastering error?

    CDs are often cut off at bit over 20khz, i belive this is so dithering works better?

    There really is no point in having the music go to much over 20khz anyway, you cant hear that high.
