1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a transmitter, an input audio signal;
generating, by the transmitter, a plurality of audio streams based at least in part on the input audio signal and a tranche function;
wherein the tranche function is configured to produce the plurality of audio streams comprising the input audio signal at a plurality of quality levels;
transmitting, by the transmitter, the plurality of audio streams across a network to each receiver;
wherein the plurality of quality levels comprise at least four quality levels comprising:
a lowest tranche having a 12 kHz audio sample rate with an 8 bit mantissa depth,
a second tranche having a 48 KHz audio sample rate with a Normal bit depth,
a third tranche having a 96 KHz audio sample rate with an Extended bit depth, and
a fourth tranche having a full 24 bit depth.
