Wait, so aliasing occurs when the signal is sampled?
So if i have this patch :

[adc~]

|
|
[dac~]

and if the signal already contains frequencies above the Nyquist, i will get aliasing?

Well obviously (or not) a real-world ADC (e.g. a sound card) always includes an analog lowpass filter that cuts off the frequencies above Nyquit before actually digitalizing!!!!


However, when you sample a mathematically generated signal, such as:

[phasor~ 1000]
 |
[dac~]

then no filtering occurs, and aliasing does occur.

More evident:

[osc~ 40000]
 |
[dac~]
