Wrong sampleCount expression in ReadWAV (readme.md)
int sampleCount = (int) (afr.Length / afr.WaveFormat.BitsPerSample / 8);

I guess this sampleCount is an estimation of the final size of the List<double> audio. However, 253296 is 64 times smaller than 16210944. So the most reasonable explanation is /8 is a typo of *8.

This "typo" causes the birth of garbage twice as large as the audio itself.
