A system and method for provide high quality audio in real-time communication over low bit rate network connections. The system includes real-time communication software application having an improved encoder and an improved decoder. The encoder decomposes audio data based on two frequency ranges corresponding to a super wideband mode and a wideband mode into a lower sub-band and a higher sub-band. Audio features are extracted from the lower sub-band and higher sub-band audio data. The audio features are quantized and packaged. The decoder reconstructs the audio data for playback on the receiving device based on the compressed audio features in the super wideband mode and the wideband mode.
