Won't matter it's not affecting the sound

I put one before the limiter and after the limiter, for comparison purposes

(My limiter has dither)

There's a plug-in called bitter which lets you identify unwanted conversions from 16 or 24 bits by things like meters.

Last I checked, Mastermeter was the cause of some crazy CPU spikes. Has that been fixed? If not, avoid it and use something like HOFA 4U Meter
