Possible Clean Conversion of 16 to 8 bit WAV without Dither Hiss or Optional Distortion? – Samplers, Sampling & Sample Libraries Forum

I’ve used that & many more… It makes dithering noise as well… I don’t care about batch as much as clean conversion or generation… Also just tried VSThost as it records to 8bit but it’s about same as TapeIt for generation of noise artifacts along with the sample… Seems like 8bit is a pain wonder how they did it in the old days… Anyways tried R8Brain, Acoustica, Goldwave, Sound Forge, Wavelab, Audacity (won’t do much of anything), aWave, Wavosaur, DartXP, Sampled 2.0, NCH Audio Edit Master plus others…
