11.1 Dithering
Unlike previous TDM and RTAS versions, the AAX version has the new option of not
dithering the output. This should be used whenever the plug-in is not inserted last in the
master insert chain.
When enabling 16 or 24-bit dithering, the plug-in now automatically compensates the
output level for the type of dither being added, using the minimum possible gain
reduction. This means that when you enable dithering, your mix should not generate any
more clips than it already does with no dithering. Therefore you do not have to find the
reduced output level that no longer produces clips.
The AAX Limiter continues to exhibit exceptional noise shaping performance for the
dithering and truncation, resulting in a noise floor that is in some places nearly 30dB
below that of standard (TPDF) dithered/truncated methods. One improvement in this new
version is the elimination of the tiny dc offset that was introduced by the truncation.
