Description
Describe the bug
For maximum interoperability, 16- and 24-bit WAV formats should also be available for export
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Open the Export dialog
- Choose WAV
- Note the absence of a bit depth setting
Expected behavior
The ability to pick 16-bit, 24-bit or 32-bit depth
Platform information
- OS: Windows 10
Additional context
The 32-bit WAV format is recent enough that it doesn't have the ubiquitous compatibility enjoyed by the more established 16- and 24-bit WAV formats, nor is the disk space and processing overhead always warranted or desired. Notably, Logic Pro doesn't natively support 32-bit WAV.
Obviously, the files can be converted after the fact, but that's also true for mp3 and FLAC. I think it's reasonable to be able to pick the bit depth right at the time of export, to cut down on user inconvenience.
