I am going to dust off the gear this afternoon and find something to contribute. I’ve been too busy with the personal life lately to get much done musically, not so many gigs lately either . It will be good to take another stab at a cause… hopefully it will do some good.
Okay, so I am now gonna look like I am littering this topic…
I have just sent off my contribution to Larry and Tom. I hope others will find something they can share, no matter what you feel the “grade” of it is… you’ll be sending the right energy anyway.
I’m 99% certain it was recorded in 16-bit. I don’t think I have the wav file here anyway so I’ll have to re-export regardless, just as much effort sticking a dither on it and exporting to 24-bit, unless you can somehow do the conversion in a superior way?
Ok, lastly. I need more tail to the song to fade it. If you can reopen the project and give me more tail, that would be great too! Don’t get any funny ideas either!

Cubase processes in 32bit float. Just export in 24 bit and you will be fine. It sounds like you used VST instruments in the song and those extra bits will benefit from being exported in 24bit.
If you send 2 different ones, master buss fx and one not, no dither please. It gets real nasty when you dither something a number of times, regardless of the algo that is doing it. It gets additive.
