Upload a FLAC file and convert it to 16-bit.
16-bit FLAC at 44.1 kHz is the quality of a CD, losslessly compressed. For a listening library it is hard to argue past it: blind tests rarely distinguish it from 24-bit sources, files shrink meaningfully, and every FLAC-capable player handles it.
This tool converts your 24-bit FLAC to 16-bit FLAC locally, leaving sample rate untouched unless you also use the sample rate tool.
If storage allows, archive them; they are the masters. The 16-bit copies are ideal for everyday devices and syncing.
Typically 25 to 35 percent versus 24-bit at the same sample rate, more if you also downsample hi-res rates.
