Dither during export ?

[toodamnhip]

I record and mix everything 24 bit. I never add dither. When it has to be put onto a cd then and only then will I dither from 24 bit to 16 bit. Let the mastering house do it.

My thoughts,

My mastering guy (Lurssen), Masters to 24 bit anyway, so, no dither ever.
24 bit to analog, through his board, right to 16 bit, (2ndary 24 bit too if wanted).

Even in this case, DP will truncate from internal 32bit float to create your fixed 24 bit files. AFAICT, you may take advantage of dithering.
