In order to reconstruct that sinusoid, you'll need a filter with an infinitely steep transition band. You've demonstrated that SR/2 aliases to 0Hz, i.e. DC. That digital stream of samples is not reconstructable. On 8/18/2015 1:28 PM, Peter S wrote: That's false. 1, -1, 1, -1, 1, -1 ... is a

Here's an experiment that I always wanted to do: The dither added is 1 bit (or 2 if doing TPDF), so generating it from a PRNG is easy, you get one bit at a time, and the bits are all completely uncorrelated to each other - white noise spectrum. When implemented in DSP, sometimes you get a PRNG

You didn't change the bandwidth. If the target signal is max 30Hz and you have a 192kHz sampler, you low pass at 2x your max frequency (60Hz, but lets say 100Hz for convenience) using a brick wall digital filter (processed at 192kHz). Then you do a downsampling of the signal from 192kHz to

This is painful to follow. Can we at least go back to basics and not keep changing the meaning of well known concepts and vocabulary. re, sound card performance: What is SNR, how is it measured, and why does that matter? e.g. http://www.cse.psu.edu/~chip/course/analog/lecture/SFDR1.pdf There

Related: Using separate reverbs on each instrument in a DAW recording gives a richer mix that just a single reverb on the master channel. Back in the analog days, you'd use the multitrack tape and mixer to do multiple passes through the best reverb in the studio. In the early DAW days, you'd

2015-04-14 Thread Tom Duffy
Following the SIMD instruction with a NOP, or interleaving with other bits of unrelated code is a common DSP trick for dealing with this problem. You'd have to look up the documentation for how many NOPs are needed before the SIMD result is available back in the register, and that may vary
