When convering to a lower bit-depth, dithering is required because the wordlength is being changed,
Registered by

I would like to see a dithering feature added to SoundConverter. There are many different dithering algorithms, but I do not know of any that are open source. However, dithering is required when converting an audio file from a higher bit-depth (ex: 24 bit) to a lower bit-depth (ex: 16 bit). Dithering avoids data truncation.
