Hi,
I was testing the difference between the LAME encoder and FhG. I got some odd results, so if anyone can make sense of this, please post your comments.
Anyway, I made a wave file which contained just pink noise. I then encoded at 320 with both LAME and FhG. Both gave rather good results, although there was a noticable difference. There was no real noticable drop-off until over 20KHz. However, whenever I tried the same thing with a music file, the LAME encoder does a much better job, while the FhG encoder drops off at about 16KHz. I can understand there being a difference between encoders, but why would the pink noise file come out so much better than actual music?
