+The Laplace distribution for each band is defined by a 16-bit (Q15) decay parameter.
+Thus, the value 0 has a probability of p[0]=32767*(16384-decay)/(16384+decay). The
+values +/-i each have a probability p[i] = (p[i-1]*decay)>>14. The value of p[i] is always
+rounded down (to avoid exceeding 32767 as the sum of all probabilities), so it is possible
+for the sum to be less than 32767. There is thus is small range of values that are impossible.
+The signed values corresponding to symbols 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... are [0, +1, -1, +2, -2, ...].
