Sound quality

To provide lossless (bit-perfect) conversion:

In Settings > General > check "Don't make DSP..." switch.
Select sample rate and bit depth "as input".

When the conversion is performed with resampling, there are some losses (distortions). A sound conversion tool defines the distortion level.
