An apparatus for compressing a digital input signal compresses a digital input signal arranged into frames of plural samples. The digital input signal is orthogonally transformed by plural orthogonal transform circuits in blocks derived by dividing the frames by a different divisor in each circuit. The resulting spectral coefficients are quantized using an adaptive number of bits. The output of one orthogonal transform circuit is selected based on the outputs of the orthogonal transform circuits. The digital input signal is divided into plural frequency ranges, and frames are formed in each range. A block length decision circuit determines division of the frames of each range signal into blocks in response to range signal dynamics. The range signals are orthogonally transformed in blocks and the spectral coefficients are quantized. The apparatus also includes a frequency analyzing circuit that derives spectral data points from the input data, and groups them in plural bands. A noise level setting circuit finds the energy in each band and sets a allowable noise level in response to the band energy. A block floating coefficient calculating circuit calculates block floating coefficients based on the maximum spectral data point in each band. A quantizing bit number decision circuit determines the number of bits to use for quantizing in response to the allowable noise level and the block floating coefficients. A quantizing circuit quantizes the spectral data points in response to the quantizing bit number decision circuit.
