Encodec is a neural audio codec developed by Meta for high-fidelity, low-bitrate audio compression using end-to-end deep learning. Unlike traditional codecs (like MP3 or Opus), Encodec uses a learned quantizer and decoder to reconstruct complex waveforms with remarkable accuracy at bitrates as low as 1.5 kbps. It employs a convolutional encoder–decoder architecture trained with perceptual loss functions that optimize for human auditory quality rather than raw waveform distance. The model can operate in real time and supports variable bandwidths, bitrates, and multi-band audio. ...
