Description
Decodes the Quite OK Audio (QOA) format. This project implements decoding of the "Quite OK Audio" (QOA) format in the Ć programming language.
Features
tl;dr: QOA is a lossy, time domain audio compression format with a constant bitrate of 277 kbits/s for Stereo 44100hz. 400 lines of C, single header.
Warning
If you are experimenting with QOA, please be very careful, especially when wearing headphones. You may unexpectedly produce garbage output that can damage your ears. I had more than a few close calls. Note that files encoded with a current development versions will likely not work (or produce horrible sounds) when decoded in a slightly older or newer version.
