Adobe Audition reduces the file size when saving.

Question

Hello.I am using build 24.0.0.46.Windows 10 x 64When I save the FLAC file, it shrinks significantly!Some information is lost, which means the quality is deteriorating!The FLAC source file is 16 bit, 44100 hz.When saving, I also set the FLAC parameters to 16 bits, 44100 hz.In the program settings, 44100 hz is also set.For the experiment, I upload only one VST3 plug-in to the Effect Rack (FabFilter Pro-Q 4 (flat default)), enable bypass mode on this plug-in, click Apply, and save it in the same format. The result: more than 5% of the information is lost. The source file is 36.1 MB, and the saved file is 34.2 MB. On large 24-bit files, up to 20% of the information is lost!Is this a flaw in the program?How can I fix this?

when you do your FLAC save, what are the Format Settings?You can see what the options are if you click on the 'change' button.
