Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

Re: Linearly quantized

What I was doing was taking a dynamic range and dividing it up linearly by the number of bits. What am I missing? What would be the differential of amplitude in dB at the lowest levels of signal using 16, 20 or 24 bits?

Is this not the reason for the limited low level resolution of the 16 bit format?

The idea that 20 bits would be more than adequate because of the noise of the electronics does not hold water.
