In my previus posting I forgot to mention an important point that
applies to a 24 to 16 bit conversion:

When converting a 24 bit recording to 16 bit, there is usually alrealy
enough noise in the original recording. For this reason, I belive that
it is not required to add additional dither noise. However, this is
probably just nit picking...
