A computer-implemented method of encoding audio includes accessing a plurality of independent audio source streams, each of which includes a sequence of source frames. Respective source frames of each sequence include respective pluralities of pulse-code modulated audio samples. Each of the plurality of independent audio source streams is separately encoded to generate a plurality of independent encoded streams, each of which corresponds to a respective independent audio source stream. The encoding includes, for respective source frames, converting respective pluralities of pulse-code modulated audio samples to respective pluralities of floating-point frequency samples that are divided into a plurality of frequency bands. An instruction to mix the plurality of independent encoded streams is received; in response, respective floating-point frequency samples of the independent encoded streams are combined. An output bitstream is generated that includes the combined respective floating-point frequency samples. |
