Bonk is a an audio compression program that operates in both lossy and
|
|
|
|
|
lossless modes. The compression method Bonk uses is quite simple compared to
|
|
|
|
|
other lossy formats such as MP3, and is based on speech compression techniques.
|
|
|
|
|
It is nevertheless capable of producing a high compression ratio while
|
|
|
|
|
maintaining good sound quality.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In lossy mode, it averages 14:1 compression while remaining almost perceptually
|
|
|
|
|
lossless. This corresponds to 95 kbps for high quality audio.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In lossless mode the original audio file can be recovered exactly. Lossless
|
|
|
|
|
mode typically achieves around 2:1 compression.
