So, what are some of the options available? Well, there’s AAC (Advanced Audio Coding), which is a popular choice for high-quality audio compression. It uses a combination of psychoacoustic modeling and perceptual coding to reduce the amount of data needed while still maintaining good sound quality.

For example, let’s say you have an original music track that’s 10 MB in size. By using AAC compression with a bit rate of around 320 kbps (kilobits per second), you can reduce the file size to about 4 MB without sacrificing too much quality. This is because AAC is able to identify which parts of the audio signal are less important and compress them more heavily, while still preserving the most critical sounds for a better listening experience.

Another option available in BMFF is MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer III), which has been around since the late 1980s and is still widely used today. It’s a simpler compression algorithm than AAC, but it can be more efficient at reducing file sizes for certain types of audio content like speech or music with repetitive patterns.

For example, let’s say you have an audiobook that’s 10 MB in size and you want to compress it using MP3 with a bit rate of around 64 kbps. This will reduce the file size to about 2 MB without sacrificing too much quality for spoken word content.

So, which codec should you choose? Well, that depends on your specific needs and preferences. If you’re looking for high-quality audio compression with a good balance between file size and sound quality, AAC is probably the best option. But if you need to save space or are working with older equipment that doesn’t support AAC, MP3 may be a better choice.

In any case, it’s always a good idea to test out different codecs and bit rates to see which ones work best for your specific use case. And remember, the key is to find a balance between file size and sound quality that meets your needs without sacrificing too much of either one.
