True Audio encoder (TTA) is a simple real-time lossless audio compressor based on adaptive prognostic filters which has shown the same or the better results comparing to majority of modern analogs. Our main requirements to compressor development was the reasonable compression level and high operation speed. - Down to 30% lossless audio data compression
- Real-time encoder/decoder algorithm
- Fast operation speed and minimal system requirements
- Can be compiled and executed on several different platforms
- Free and open source code and documentation
TTA performs lossless compression on multichannel 8,16,24 bit''s integer and 32 bit''s IEEE floating-point data of the Wav audio files. Being "lossless" means that no data/quality is lost in the compression - when uncompressed, the data will be identical to the original. The compression ratios of TTA depend on the type of music file being compressed, but the compression size will generally range between 30% - 70% of the original. TTA format supports both of ID3v1 and ID3v2 information tags. Using True Audio encoder you can to store up to 20 audio CD from your collection on one single DVD-R for playback, keeping all of CD information in a popular ID3 information tags. At now the main of our goals is not a reaching of a maximum compression rate. Our purpose now is the encoder algorithms optimization for easy hardware implementation. |
