Hello Kevin I am not convinced that your application totally compares to a continously changed sampling rate, but anyway: The maths stays the same, so you will have to respect Nyquist and take the artifacts of your AA filter as well as your signal processing into account. This means you

Thanks Frank, I use cubic interpolation to interpolate between samples and it seems a bit better than linear for me. I am more worried about the downsampling, when the playhead is going faster than the original samplerate and that's when the high frequencies of the original material start to

Thanks for your ideas, I'll look into those! It's actually just a digital delay effect or a sample playback system, where I have a playhead that have to read samples from a buffer, but the playhead position can be modulated, so the output will be pitching up/down depending on the actual

Hi Kevin. I'm the least-expert guy here I'm sure, but as a fellow newbie I might have some newbie-level ideas for you. Just to mention something simple: linear interpolating between samples is a huge improvement in reducing aliasing over not interpolating. For instance if your playback math

Hey, Frank — I use four-point, third-order hermite resampling everywhere. It's fast, relatively simple, and as good as will be necessary for most applications. Linear resampling can introduce some perceptible harmonic distortion into higher frequencies. This will be especially noticeable when
