Re: Help Encode 24 Bit to FLAC

to my understanding, if you took a digital 16bit file and saved it directly as 24bit.. it would pad the data with 8bit of zeros (identical sample rate / bloated file size)

..there may be some pro audio software that could upsample/alter the original - but I'm unfamiliar.
I do know that many new amps/receivers have an audio upsample option for playback (not unlike video upscaling).. but they deal with the sample rate (kHz) not the bit/data unit.
