Message-ID: Date: 3 Apr 91 15:35:02 GMT Sender: news@kth.se (News Administrator) Organization: Royal Institute of Technology Lines: 16 Hello, I would like to know if there exists any good and moderately fast compression programs that will compress 16-bit soundfiles by a large amount. These files are stored for archiving purposes and therefore I need a non lossy compression. I have tried compress, freeze and yabba, and I get best compression with freeze but it take the longest time both to compress and decompress. What I would like is a program that has equal or better compression than freeze and has faster (preferably much faster) decompression speed. Btw this is for a Unix machine. -- Roger Lindell rog@speech.kth.se Phone: +46 8 790 75 73 Fax: +46 8 790 78 54 Dept. of Speech Communication and Music Acoustics Royal Institute of Technology Sweden
