A human voice sounds like something that is nice to have; but does it
have to be 24bit? As I see it, mxf allows 16bit sound everywhere where
it allows 24bit. Furthermore, the channels will still be recognizably
different if the audio is cut off at 1s (this will cut off the "effect"
from "low frequency effect" and will also cut off beeps for the others).
