We decided to improve TwinVQ algorithm with latest MPEG-4 bandwidth extension - Spectral Band Replication (SBR)

MPEG-4 TwinVQ + SBR will be called vqfPro and expected to be CD quality at 32 kb/s!!

VQF, as everybody knows, is a major breakthrough in audio coding technology - with 50% improvements over MP3, and with bandwidth extension it gets additional 30% of bit rate savings.

Special Pre-Post-Echo-Away™ (similar but better than TNS) is used to reduce small problems VQF had with transients.

Additional WMA-Death™ vbr quality control with multi-pass will bring audio quality to completely new levels.

Expect beta versions soon.

Heh! This must be an april's fools joke!

Nice try...

Why do these April jokes only pop up in "General AAC"?

@Ivan:

Blah ! Your approach looks pale and obsolete to me, in comparison with my Rotated Wavelets © ™ neural network approach, which beats CD at GSM bitrates ! This reduces the problem of psychoacoustic to a simple degree-1024 pneumo-morphic polynomial..

Also, the compression speed is interesting: about 1200X on a basic Thrillium (=pentium XVXMMIICLV), after 15 years of optimization by an alien programmer (=me).. by the way, the algorithm is so powerful, it can solve a level of Sokoban in just a few hours, by blasting through the walls and pulling the crates ® © ™
