Hi Geoff,
Nice explanation! I like the text example.
One quibble, noise shaping doesn’t always work quite the way you think it should with undithered signals, you often get funny results because of the effects of the distortion. It does work just fine with dithered though!
This is just a link to someone else’s website. I just thought it made a good into to dither. You should check out the rest of that guy’s website as well – there are some good intros to DSP in there.

Nice to read your voice!

FYI: my version of this is at http://www.tonmeister.ca/seeing_dither/ – but there is nothing about noise shaping in that page.
Hope all’s well!
