RE: 20-bit processing

One thing to be clear on is that Keith isn't saying we don't need dither. His point is that the background noise in the recording is often sufficient to provide the required dither.

And I'm not going to argue that we don't need 20-bit recording. I think we'd be best served if the playback format was the same as the recording, with as little processing in between as possible. But if we're stuck with 16/44.1 as the delivery format, we may as well make the most of it.
