It would be extremely helpful if we could add an option to enable dither in the export/mixdown audio page. This would allow us to set up all final deliverables (digital, CD, Video, etc) at the correct bit depth for all songs in a project. Without this, it seems like the queue setting is almost useless.

I don’t think others are aware that their songs are being truncated when reducing bit depth during mixdown with the queue - otherwise I’m sure there would be much more discussion on this topic. Thanks so much!

Completely agree - it makes reducing bit depth impossible in the exporter.
