convolution

Post by raphaelpoli » Mon May 05, 2014 2:52 pm

Hello.
I've been using audacity a few times now. And I am aware there are a lot of things to add before this, but one very interresting function that I would love to be able to use is convolution. It is a function that allows to extract a tone from for example a short sample, and to blend it with a longer sound such as generated noise, in order to obtain a long sound with that precise tone.
hope you can guess how to do this!
yours,
Raphael

Most people want a convolver to suppress room echoes. It's the only tool that has any positive effect at all.

A simple example (for the Nyquist Prompt):

Code: Select all

(setf i-r (abs-env (mult (noise) (pwe 0 1e-20 0.3 0.01 0.4 0.1 0.4))))
(convolve s i-r )
The impulse response is 0.4 s long, that's fairly long already.
