RE: 20-bit processing

I respect your experience...but I am still not convinced that dither is needed in all situations. Actually, I'm shocked it's needed at all - being that any production losses are now moved away from the 16/44 spec. Wasn't that the benefit of recording at 20-bit/88-96kHz ?

I would like to see more engineers describe their experience with high-bit/high sample with dither. I think engineers are so used to using dither that it's automatic. But is it really needed ? If it is - I'd like to hear why.

What's wrong with a format that's zero in distortion, zero in noise and has a dynamic range of 95db (at full resolution) ??
