Comment (by Kamedo2): Replying to [comment:86 klaussfreire]: > I just want to preserve the HF component of transients. There might be better ways of doing that. I guess I'll keep iterating on it. However, I believe the way it's being done now works well. If you check, the LP cutoff is chosen from the allocation given by psy. Psy contains bit reservoir logic, which means it will momentarily increase bits (and cutoff) for some difficult transients. Right now, it works wonders for hi- hats. So, if there is a group of beat sounds that is on the threshold of tonal/transients, the LPF is sometimes on and sometimes off? Currently, the on/off switch itself is audible and is quite annoying. It sounds like a stopwatch. > I will probably have to be stricter about the cutoff, though. As you say, when the signal by itself (not by psy's indication, but signal strength alone) suddenly jumps in HF content, the result is unpleasant. I think I have cleaned up most of those cases, but who knows. It's hard to discern those from actual transients. ffmpeg_aacvbr_pulse1.flac at -q:a 0.25 produces strange HF sounds. -- Ticket URL: <https://ffmpeg.org/trac/ffmpeg/ticket/2686#comment:87> FFmpeg <http://ffmpeg.org> FFmpeg issue tracker _______________________________________________ FFmpeg-trac mailing list FFmpeg-trac@avcodec.org http://avcodec.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-trac
