And additional question, for listening test is it suitable to apply usual DSP effects (gr.equalizer + limiter). WIth these effects the audio sound "better" for me, but not sure if they don't suppres audio artifacts too. This post has been edited by Anakunda: Sep 27 2011, 12:39

For now I have tried a couple of songs whose sound transparent (can not abx) but this is my point: these samples I have chosen may be easy pieces for the codec. So obviously I want to test the codec on songs that will disclose most easily possilbe weakness so that I could change my codec or profile.
