- Other Projects and Information

• In January of 2002, The Audio Engineering Society's Technical Council launched a tutorial project on CD-ROM, "Perceptual Audio Coders: What to Listen For." Developed by the Technical Committee on Coding of Audio Signals, and produced by Dr. Markus Erne, the unique CD-ROM is the first of its kind to be produced by the AES. It has been developed to familiarize audio engineers, broadcast engineers, and students of audio with the underlying principles of perceptual audio coding.
  About twenty years later, the Technical Committee on Coding of Audio Signals produced a second-generation educational package that adds tutoring on new artifact types as they can be typically experienced with advanced audio codec processing (e.g. bandwidth extension or parametric stereo). Moreover, the format of the material was enhanced for seamless display and playback on PCs, tablets and mobile phones and includes interactive graphics elements. This makes it an attractive educational package that is made available freely on the web.
