Look what I found under the Xmas tree!
...T! Now we have two; competition is a good thing. Let's see which one is fastest :-) Completely overhauled psycha! Well, actually, the only big change is that it does all of its computations in the dB domain, and does some things just a little bit different, to improve performance. Changed the ATH_Bark_dB array. This removes some very annoying artifacts when encoding low-frequency, tonal sounds. MDCT_COOR: this should reduce the blocking artifacts the MDCT creates. This #define is tunable; smaller is less correction. The algorithm is only exact for sine windows, but is ok for the Vorbis window as w...

here's the test case, possible solution
...all, Finally I succeeded in uploading the test case I promised. It's at http://home.wanadoo.nl/segher/test1.wav.bz2 (It is a wav, the headers are a bit inconsistent, but encoder_example will be ok with it, as it just skips them). I did some thinking, and a possible solution is decreasing the ATH_Bark_dB[] for the lower frequencies. As the comments say, it's not really an ATH, but this table is limiting the maximum quantizer step (or something like that, I still don't fully understand the psymodel). I overdid it a bit (changing everything to zero, until the first zero in the original), and...
