A new method for coding high quality audio signals with a very low bit-rate is presented, which is called Multiple Adaptive Spectral, Audio Coding (MSC). Adaptive transform-coding together with psychoacoustic bit-allocation is used. The result is a signal representation with only 3.0 bit/samples at a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz.
