hi,

sorry fore the (still) german site. an english version is 'under
construction' and hopefully will be released in a few days.
but here is some information on the codec:

it's based on the strucure of mpeg1-layer2 and therefore is a
subbandcoder. there were some enhancements in lossless coding (intense
use of huffman-tables for quantized samples, more efficient coding of
scalefactors), some enhancements in the psychoacoustic model (like
'clear voice detection' which prevents voiced speech from becoming
distorted or nonlinear spreading function) and some things that were not
supported by layer2 (mid/side-encoding, adaptive noise shaping in
subbands). the codec is recommended to be used in vbr-mode (quite low
average bitrate) and seems to offer more 'stable' quality in comparison
to other codecs. as i've been told with special hard-to-encode signals
(like 'fatboy slim - kalifornia') it performs better at vbr with avg of
about 140 kbit/s than mp3-encoders with 192 kbit/s...
