...teger, and it's lossless. So I'd just make it encode 32bit float, it's lossless afterall. 2 problems, first I would suspect it wouldn't encode very well, since the data wouldn't be "audio" anymore, right? It would be like trying to FLAC-encode random data. So I tried FLACing white noise, and comp ratio was pretty poor, confirming this. Interestingly, it still did a better job than ZIP! The second problem would be that no other tool would read them correctly anyway. The second idea is to truncate & use it as a lossy encoder, which can be "audibly lossless&quo...
