Is there a standard way of converting a 24bit sample
to 16bit?
I ask because I think that in different scenarios, one would want a
different result.
As others have said - dither and drop the low 8 bits. But...
returned to the user. The problem here is what are the
"most useful
16bits"? I have one application where just using the lower 16bits of the
24bit value is ideal, due to extremely low input signals.
Normalize the 24 bit sample first?
