<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Dithering is a process you use to avoid truncation (what you've called dropping the bits). I do not know the order. If you want control over the process, either keep the bit depth the same and SRC when bouncing, or dither when bouncing then SRC the bounce.

. Is all the hardware & drives I"m using now compatible?
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">That depends on what hardware you are using. The interfaces and cards (excluding SampleCell) are compatible. If you use MIDI and have a MIDI interface that connects to your Mac's serial port, your interface is useless. You will need to acquire a USB MIDI interface. Also if you use AVOption, you are out of luck. You will need to upgrade to AVOption|XL. ATTO SCSI cards are compatible, but I'm not certain about Adaptec. If you use Masterlist CD, you will need to acquire Roxio's Jam.

Hope that covers it.
