Hello,

I found a sample sounding really weird with this pre-RC1 encoder:

Artist: Kamelot
Album: The Fourth Legacy
Title: Lunar Sanctum

(Yes, it´s Heavy Metal!)

The first three seconds are a solo of a cembalo (sorry, bad english).
This test-encoder intruduces a low-frequency "humming" - the sample
"vibrates". Don´t know how to express this properly.

I am not an experienced "test-listener" so I don´t know that
"expert"-terms of how to describe an artifact :-(

Neither Beta-4 nor that older pre-RC1 encoder (~90 Kbps) have a
problem with this sample.

I don´t have any webspace I can use for hosting
this sample. It is very small (626 KB uncompressed, 364 KB LPAC)
so I can mail it. Anyone interested? (Monty perhaps ;-)

bye,

Maik Merten
