Dithering
Dithering is a process you can use when you convert a 24-bit file to 16 bits. SONAR
offers the new Pow-r dithering process, short for Psycho-acoustically Optimized
Wordlength Reduction, which can produce 16-bit files that sound indistinguishable
from their 24-bit source files. Dithering adds a small amount of noise to the 16-bit
file to approximate the sounds that were lost when the other 8 bits were removed.
When this option is turned on, SONAR uses dithering when you import a 24-bit
file into a 16-bit project. Also, because many SONAR features such as effects use
32-bit processing, SONAR applies dithering when you bounce or freeze tracks with
dither turned on. Doing lots of bouncing and/or freezing with dither turned on can
build up noise in your project, however turning it off produces a small amount of
distortion during bounces and freezes instead. Dithering is not applied or needed if
you work in 24-bit mode, until you decide to export a 16-bit file, at which time you
can turn it on if you want.
