>From G3PLX: I am just starting to do some serious tests with my new 24-bit Firebox. With the audio input of a channel short-circuit, if I analyse the statistics of the 24-bit data, I find the bottom 8 bits are ALWAYS random. In fact the bottom 9-10 bits are random.
This tells me there is no point at all in having 24-bit audio. I might just as well stay with 16-bits. Has anyone here done any rigorous tests comparing 16 and 24-bit audio and found any difference? Like patching the code to mask off the bottom 8 bits completely, or replacing the bottom 8 bits with random data. Maybe someone has added a checkbox to turn this sort of test feature on and off and see what, if any, is the difference in the speaker. 73 Peter _______________________________________________ FlexRadio mailing list FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archive Link: http://mail.flex-radio.biz/pipermail/flexradio_flex-radio.biz/ FlexRadio Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com
