Hi Fons,
no neutral measurements, just my individual mixing experiences. I
always noticed audible noise comparable, if not more annoying noise, to
noise I experienced for good analog recordings, still too much for
my taste. I couldn't find an alternative solution yet. When I used
Cubase for testing purpose on Windows around a decade ago, it shipped
with a dithering plugin. I don't remember it's name, but after googling
I guess it was
https://steinberg.help/cubase_plugin_reference/v9/en/_shared/topics/plug_re…
.
I still remember that "dither noise is gated during silent passages"
wasn't the only benefit, it was always nearly inaudible, at least not
as loud as noise, I experienced with good analog tape recordings, while
my experiences with jack2 couldn't hold a candle to this plugin.
Regards,
Ralf
Off-topic: If you should get rid of the xruns,
you much likely will
notice that jack's build in dithering, is just noisy pain, compared
to proprietary alternatives.
Any evidence (i.e. measurements) to support that ?
