Not really. Both are freq (well, and amplitude) domain only. The chebyshev is a way of generating specific harmonics, eg. you can output the fundamental + the 2nd harmonic at -6dB, the 4th at -16, the 6th at -21, etc. You can't easily control the phase though. The harmonics track the source as you would expect, regardless of frequency range (though aliasing is an issue, ofcourse). > i don't think phase shifting will make a difference (and if > it does, it's good to know you can fix it ;) OK, then all I need to do is split out the distorted sinwave and load it into octave. How Hard Can It Be(TM). ;) Fix it is probably the wrong term, I can sort of bash it into compliance. - Steve
