Issue

The DestinFile component directly supports only a 32-bit file format. It always writes out a 32-bit raw floating-point file, no matter what file type is specified. Other formats, such as .wav and .txt files, are not supported at this time.

Workaround

A 16-Bit integer format ('. I16') can also be used if the 'Comp to 16' component is used to convert the data to 16 Bit integer format before transferring it to the destination file.
