Audio Control  
Technology to extrapolate and supplement with proprietary  
algorithm, the high-frequency range that is cut off when  
encoding at low bit rate (less than 128Kbps, Sampling  
frequency is 44.1kHz).  
Supplementing is optimized by compression format (AAC,  
MP3 or WMA) and processed according to bit rate.  
The effect is negligible with music that is encoded at high  
bit rate, variable bit rate or has minimal high frequency  
range.
