Today in "ffmpeg's AAC encoder is still a embarrassment and nobody should ever use it": OBS on Windows using it, at 320kbps, makes music sound like a low bitrate mp3 (metallic hi-hats, etc). No problem with a custom OBS build on Gentoo with libfdk_aac enabled, at *160* kbps.
Looks like most of the issue here was due to the original being very hot (in the stream it would've been lower). Redoing the test with volume reduction...

Here we go. libfdk_aac is arguably better than lame (it runs on 16-bit int math so it can't handle overshoots well at all, after lowering the gain it's fine), ffmpeg is *terrible* in comparison to both. https://mrcn.st/t/lame_vs_fdk_vs_ffmpeg_delta_lower.wav …

Substracting resulting encode of two psycho acoustic codecs is not a proper way to compare audio signal, but yes, the main difference in the high frequency, and I agree with you, I can hear high-pitched 'hiss' too. Check how
