Thanks a lot. This worked perfectly.

Yes, I am looking for lower bitrates, optimized for 22 kHz signals. Ideally
I'd like to have good quality for speech at about 40 kbit/sec and get better
quality than Speex. So far, by doing your hack and removing the two highest
bands I get completely transparent quality at 62 kbit/sec.

The results I get with CELT at 42 kbit/sec are also pretty good, but the
highest bands get some noise  in the 8-11 kHz frequency range. I am going to
see what I can do, and try to optimize the band allocation or other parts of
the codec. For comparison, AAC-LC achieves transparent quality for speech at
about 48 kbit/sec.
