Dyadic bit-exact volume steps

Volume steps that lose zero bits when output depth exceeds file depth.

Mathematical precision

How it works

Off by default. Applies mathematical dyadic step attenuation using pure bit shifts without roundoff error. Provides 85 exact steps for 16-bit files at 32-bit output. Provides 20 exact steps for 24-bit files at 32-bit output.

What you hear

Attenuates volume with zero bit-depth truncation and zero added dither noise.

16-bit to 32-bit: 85 bit-exact steps
24-bit to 32-bit: 20 bit-exact steps
Dither policy: Zero dither needed for exact steps
