Ok, you're right. My bad.  I had this problem several years ago, but I don't exactly remember how I solved it.
In Adobe Audition, you can change the Byte Order but only for 16bit files. 24 bit files seem to always resort to Big-Endian.

I tried this with Episode, too, as someone else suggested but even when selecting 24Bit Little Endian, it resorts to Big Endian on final output.

So now I'm stumped, too.

So sorry for the misinformation.

Hmm George, I just tried that and the aiff is still big endian not little.

Quicktime 7 will do this.  You Export and then choose Sound to AIFF.  You can choose 24 bit there.

On Intel Macs, AIFF's will always be Little Endian.  (and that's why that option is greyed out.)
On PowerPC's, they will be Big Endian.

Anybody know how to create 24bit Little Endian Aiff files on OSX?

It seems like I can create 16bit ones no problem but cannot find a tool to create 24 bit ones.

I have a delivery on a project and it requires 24bit little endian audio on the QT files.

Thanks.
