FLAC Downloads
Since 2020, NativeDSD has offered 24-bit FLAC downloads at 96 kHz and 192 kHz, in both stereo and multichannel, for listeners whose systems are built around PCM. Each FLAC edition is created from the album's DSD or DXD edition using a specialised conversion process, carefully tuned to preserve the detail, dynamics and spatial character of the original recording.
