CURIOSITY NOTE!
The MPEG standards do not define all possible combinations of sample rate and bit rate at
284 kbps and 384 kbps for each of the algorithms.
Since Layer 3 is intended for low bits rates, they did not propose that it be used at 384 kbps.
Similarly, at the higher bit rates the absence of coding artifacts makes 48 kHz operation
possible without artifacts and hence the 32 kHz sample rates are not supported for mono.
