PCM audio should be used if you want to maintain 100% fidelity
and only if the audio source is already uncompressed PCM, such
as tracks on an audio CD or a high quality audio recording. If the
audio files are already compressed (such as MP3 or AAC songs in
your iTunes library) do not use PCM—it will not improve the
sound quality.
Toast records PCM at 48 kHz / 16 bit levels or 48 KHz / 24 bit
lev
e
ls, which are higher than standard CD quality. Audio that has
been recorded at 96 kHz / 24 bit is downsampled automatically
unless you choose the 96 kHz / 24 bit option, which maintains
the higher quality but significantly reduces disc space.
When you choose PCM, any existing Dol
b
y Digital audio files will
be “passed through” without reconverting to PCM.
