ATRAC Advanced Lossless (AAL) is the most recent addition to the proprietary [[Advanced Transform Acoustic Coding]] family of audio codecs developed by Sony. It is most commonly used for storage and playback of audio on [[MiniDisc|MiniDiscs]]. AAL uses "scalable" compression - an AAL file contains a lossy [[ATRAC3]] or [[ATRAC3plus]] stream and a stream of correction data which can be combined with the lossy stream to reproduce the original data.
