Linpro [win] | Maat Digital
The is a reference-grade redithering engine designed to preserve the maximum amount of audio detail when reducing word lengths (e.g., from 32-bit float to 16-bit CD quality). While standard dither can often feel like a clinical necessity, LINpro treats it as a critical stage of the creative process by leveraging psychoacoustic research and information theory to keep digital audio from sounding "too digital." Why it Matters for Your Mix
: Choose from 7 or 8 different noise-shaping curves, ranging from 1st to 9th order, including specialized psychoacoustic curves based on ITU and UEN standards. MAAT Digital LINpro [WiN]
: It is one of the few tools that offers a choice between rounding (fundamental linearization) and truncation . The is a reference-grade redithering engine designed to
: Using advanced noise shaping algorithms , it shifts noise to frequency areas where the human ear is less sensitive, allowing the listener to focus more on the music and less on the noise floor. Core Technical Features : Using advanced noise shaping algorithms , it
When you export a track at a lower bit depth without high-quality dither, you risk losing low-level information and introducing quantization distortion. LINpro addresses this by:
: Available for Windows (7 and newer) and macOS, supporting sample rates from 44.1 kHz up to 384 kHz.
: Unlike many dither plugins that operate blindly, LINpro provides integrated visual noise-shaping plots to show exactly how the engine is processing your signal. Practical Workflow
