+\brief Sbr scaling factors, $Revision: 36841 $
+To deal with the dynamic range in the different processing stages, a
+fixed point specific code has to rely on scaling factors. A floating
+point code carries a scaling factor -- the exponent -- for each value,
+so scaling is not necessary there.
+
+The output of the core decoder (low band) is scaled up to cover as much
+as possible bits for each value. As high band and low band are processed
+in different algorithm sections, they require their own scaling
+factors. In addition, any static buffers, e.g. filter states, require a
+separate scaling factor as well. The code takes care to do the proper
+adjustment, if scaling factors of a filter state and the time signal differ.

+
+  Dynamic scaling is used to achieve sufficient accuracy even when the signal
+  energy is low.  The dynamic framing of SBR produces a variable overlap area
+  where samples from the previous QMF-Analysis are stored. Depending on the
+  start position and stop position of the current SBR envelopes, the processing
+  buffer consists of differently scaled regions like illustrated in the below
+  figure.
