Self-dither is a term often used when adding much dither is not necassary. If enough noise is already existing at the bit-depth you cut the data it doesn´t need additional dither since the existing noise is random enough already. Some people claim that even on clean and modern material it is nearly impossible to abx the distortions from NOT using dither but i didn´t test this. I always dither cause of paranoia and how i understand things. I only want to mention that with the Beatles stuff i doubt it is worth looking for some magic Noise-shaped or sloped dither at all, so heisenberg should have it more easily done. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Wombat's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4113 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98590
