solved Difference in recording quality between Sonar and Ableton light 12?

I'm not going to debate you when you consistently show your willingness to edit your previous responses to make it look like you weren't confusing the hell out of yourself with something you read on the internet.

Lol. Excuse you? 

FYI! Im editing typing errors. Since when was it a problem to correct our typos or to put emphasis on something? 🤔

Will - I can see where you got that idea in the beginning of the article, but then the article gets more specific. Here is some quotes from the article, including when to dither:

https://www.izotope.com/en/learn/what-is-dithering-in-audio.html#:~:text=Dithering should always be off,bit to 16-bit).

When to dither audio 

Dithering should always be off unless you're bouncing audio to lower bit depths. Ideally, you should only dither audio once during the final stage of audio mastering when exporting a file to a lower bit depth (e.g. from 32-bit to 24-bit, or 24-bit to 16-bit). However, almost all modern digital audio workstations operate at 32-bit floating point or higher internally, so if you’re exporting a 24-bit WAV file for mastering, you should also dither.

Generally, you should only dither audio when bouncing down to 24-bits or less. You don’t have to worry about dithering if you’re exporting a 32-bit floating-point file or higher because it’s a high enough resolution that produces no audible quantization distortion.

. . .

Start using dithering in your digital audio

Hopefully this helps you understand why dither is so crucial to digital audio, how and why it works, and when it should be applied. Now, you’ll never have to dither about dithering again. If you’re reducing bit depth, whether from 64 or 32-bit floating-point to 24-bit fixed point, or from 24-bit down to any lower fixed-point value, add dither! It will always do more good than harm.
