Re: How to apply multiple crossfaded effects?

Thanks! I see you simply apply eq-band repeatedly for each of the data points of the "curve." I was thinking of writing exactly that for myself but I didn't know if what the graphic equalization tool does is something different and better mathematically. For now I am stepping frequencies linearly wh...

Re: How to apply multiple crossfaded effects?

steve, I think I recognize the deesser code you shared in your desciption. This is different. Think of the clicks I am trying to fix as certain tall and thin rectangles in the spectrogram. I fix each with a band stop by summing results of high and low pass filters with cutoffs dependent on the top a...

Re: How to apply multiple crossfaded effects?

Thanks, but I have no idea what any of that means! I'm talking about a Nyquist programming problem.

I hope you say that as a general rule and not a complaint about this code in particular :) I tried to comment a lot as I wrote it.

Re: Developing automatic click cleanup for speech -- new ver

Perhaps I should post two files, a library function, and a complete Analyzer plug in using it but doing the detection and labelling only? That would encourage people to play with it before adapting it.

How to apply multiple crossfaded effects?

Suppose I have a sound s, an effect f, and a crossfading envelope e. Defining g(s) as f(s) - s, then I add this to f: e * g(s) Suppose I want to apply two successive effects on overlapping intervals with crossfading. I imagine band stops with passbands well separated.The obvious is to add e2 * g2( s...

Re: Developing automatic click cleanup for speech -- new ver

steve, should I extract the detection part as a "library function" and put it on the plug ins board, even though it is not a complete effect? I do think this part of the work is more stable. I have no more ideas I want to try, except perhaps stepping the test frequencies logarithmically as an option...

Re: Memory leaks in Nyquist or the Lisp environment?

I think we have described the essentials of the problem. I have nothing to add.

Re: Developing automatic click cleanup for speech -- new ver

In case you are wondering about the meaning of labels. Identify blocks in which the ratios of the peak amplitude of the test frequency component to that in each of the neighboring blocks, expressed in dB, exceeds the "relative" threshold, and in which the amplitude also exceeds the (default -50 dB) ...
