An audio engineering friend noticed in some voiceover recordings something that I've also noticed in my own waveforms, that a lot of the time, human vocal cords seem to produce a biased waveform (seemingly a positive bias most of the time).
I vaguely remember reading either here on this list, or maybe in QST, something about this as it relates to setting microphone gain (and bias) so that the resulting modulated signal is making more efficient (I'm probably not remembering the right word) use of the available amplitude (ie, not hitting the peak early on the positive side, but falling well below it on the negative side). My Google-foo isn't working out for me today though; does anyone remember an article or posting on this topic and/or have a link to it? I haven't been able to track it down again. Nick -- *N6OL* Saying something doesn't make it true. Belief in something doesn't make it real. And if you have to lie to support a position, that position is not worth supporting. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
