Re: [PD] biquad~ with elementary filters [was: Re: dinosaurs ...]
A window or block is simply a buffer. You still only know the samples that have already passed. For most of the samples in the block, you know what sample comes next, only because it also has already passed. You don't know the sample that comes next past the boundary of the block. Now, for example, you could program a filtering algorithm on a (sufficiently fast) FPGA with zero (not quite zero, but less than one sample) latency. That's where the causal/non-causal distinction is most clear.

oops, i got it backwards, thanks for the correction - poles at 0 are
unit delay, zeros at 0 are unit advance
but that means that rzero~ and czero~ as implemented in Pd have an extra
pole at 0, so implementing a biquad~ with czero~ and cpole~ will give a
2 sample delay compared to the "real" biquad~.
snippet of source of sigrzero_perform():
{for (i = 0; i < n; i++){
t_sample next = *in1++;
t_sample coef = *in2++;
*out++ = next - coef * last;
last = next;
}}
when coef = 0, then out = in : no delay or advance, the extra pole at 0
cancels out the zero at 0

The gain+phase response at a given frequency f is given by: H( exp(i w) ) = H( cos(w) + i sin (w) ) where w = 2 * pi * f / SR Intuitively the closer the point exp(iw) is to a zero, the less the gain (and if it's equal to a zero the gain is zero), and the closer the point is to a pole, the greater the gain (and if it's equal to a pole, the gain is infinite - so keep pole radius strictly less than 1 !).

Re: [PD] biquad~ with elementary filters [was: Re: dinosaurs ...]
Hallo Chuck, thank you soo much! All is clear now. It seems I already was close or at least on the right path. The check for real roots is very nice as well, I had a bad feeling ignoring them completely and just crossing fingers in my patch. Now it isn't difficult anymore to replace the message calculations with signal objects and make a biquad with all signal inlets, for example for Damian's dinosaurs abstractions, that are are using the Biquad Cookbook [1] formulas for various filter types. I wonder if dealing with the cookbook includes unnecessary conversions? The cookbook calculates parameters for the transfer function (ff1, ff2, ...) from frequency, gain and Q settings, which can be used in [biquad~] directly, but must be converted to poles and zeros for elementary filters. Calculating the poles and zeros directly from frequency, gain and Q should be much simpler, wouldn't it? An Elementary-Filter-Cookbook would be a nice project.

There's two problems with your patch. There's a sign error in one of the expr which calculates the imaginary value. The second problem (in the same expr) was a * vs / error ( you put "/ 2*$f1" instead of / 2 / $f1). Does that make a difference? Anyway, I jiggled with it enough to get it right.

But I can finish out the problem of finding ff1, ff2, ff3, fb1, and fb2 in terms of zf+ zf- and zb+ zb- first, (the signs are clunky when writing them out in arthmetic, so I'll just rename them) and I'm going to write it out in a slightly different form. zf1 = zf+ = -ff2/(2*ff1) + sqrt(ff2^2/(4*ff1^2) - ff3/ff1) zf2 = zf- = -ff2/(2*ff1) - sqrt(ff2^2/(4*ff1^2) - ff3/ff1) zb1 = zb+ = (fb1 + sqrt(fb1^2 + 4*fb2)) / 2 zb2 = zb- = (fb1 - sqrt(fb1^2 + 4*fb2)) / 2 Then, zf1 + zf2 = -ff2/ff1 (real valued) zf1 - zf2 = 2*sqrt( ff2^2/(4*ff1^2) - ff3/ff1) (could be real or imaginary) zb1 + zb2 = fb1 (real valued) zb1 - zb2 = sqrt(fb1^2 + 4*fb2) (could be real or imaginary) The second one is easy to solve, and we will come back to the 1st one after that. fb1 = zb1 + zb2 fb2 = ( (zb1 - zb2)^2 - (zb1 + zb2)^2 )/4 the other has 3 variables and 2 equations. so, we make our variables into 2 groups ff2/ff1 = - (zf1 + zf2) ff3/ff1 = ( (zf1 + zf2)^2 - (zf1 - zf2)^2 )/4 Now, there's one free variable remaining, ff1. ff1 could be zero, which would give us a zero at z=0 and another real valued zero at -ff3/ff2. Otherwise, we take ff1 to be a scaling factor, which needs to be chosen by some other condition (gain at some chosen frequency, most likely).

Can anyone help? http://ccrma.stanford.edu/~jos/filters/BiQuad_Section.html you need to munge the biquad coefficients from the form expected by Pd's biquad~ to the form of the difference equation at the bottom - should just be some scaling and sign stuff. then you can factorize the transfer function's numerator and denominator to get the locations of the (complex) zeroes and poles (using the quadratic formula would do the trick) then feed them to [czero~] [cpole~], and an additional [*~] for the global gain. > [1] http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/techniques/latest/book-html/node160.html > [2] http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/techniques/latest/book-html/node136.html > > Ciao Claude -- http://claudiusmaximus.goto10.org ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

Except Miller. [1] Though I agree that some more of these would be handy. I tried to make a biquad~ clone with the elementary filters, but failed so far. I assume from [2] that the transfer function of two rzero~ and two rpole~ in series should be the same as a biquad~, however I don't know how to convert the ff1, ff2, ff3, fb1 and fb2 coefficients of biquad~ into the coefficients to use at the second inlets of the elemetary filters.
