Advanced iZotope 64-bit SRC™ &: MBIT+™ Dither Options

Customize the output sample rate conversion (SRC) and dither using iZotope's advanced options:

iZotope Resampler - Adjust filter steepness, cutoff scaling and preringing. For a detailed explanation of these advanced options, please read this knowledge book article on iZotope 64-bit SRC™.

iZotope MBIT+ Dither - Choose the shape, amount and bits. Toggle auto blanking, minimize peaks and silence harmonics. For detailed information on iZotope MBIT+™ Dither, please download iZotope's comprehensive dithering guide.

Not enough bits.

Good thing Quicktime is such a handy piece of software then. So fast and responsive. Mmmmmm.

i heard if you increase the bit rate you like double the color of the fidelity

Being able to adjust preringing and shape of the bits sounds really really useful.

Resampling makes everything better.

But does it support digital vinyls

no, but it does support analogue mp3s

lol it's definitely IDM

skeuomorphic design = fucking checkmate

Autechre track playing in screenshot = check

iTunes sounds like shit because it doesn't have an anti-rotational velocidensity algorithm designed to prevent lossy audio files from degrading. Quicktime however, with the right configuration, can upscale and restore those lost, precious kbps. This even includes audio files that weren't stored in a cool, dry place.

you showed me
