Hm, I am not so sure about that. If you listened to the ancient tracker modules with 8-bit samples, you would hear plenty of hiss in those, and 8 bits give you 48dB of dynamic range.

Or do you mean that you can only hear the noise when the difference between the noise signal and the actual audible payload signal is < 36dB?
