Re: [music-dsp] High quality really broad bandwidth pinknoise (ideally more than 32 octaves)

2016-04-14 Thread Theo Verelst
HI, Talking about "perfect noise", you may want to consider these theoretics: - what do you do near the Niquist frequency ? Or more practical: noise that gets near the NF will probably cause strange effects in practical DACs and when the digital signal is to be interpreted as "perfectly re-co

Dude is called Nyquist, and noise is not generally uncorrelated. White noise usually is. Pink noise is not. > On 14 Apr 2016, at 15:12 , Theo Verelst wrote: > > HI, > > Talking about "perfect noise", you may want to consider these theoretics: > > - what do you do near the Niquist frequency ?

Maybe stupid question: Is pink noise inherently correlated or is this a property of the algorithms currently in use? -Seth On Thu, Apr 14, 2016 at 7:11 AM Stefan Stenzel < stefan.sten...@waldorfmusic.de> wrote: > Dude is called Nyquist, and noise is not generally uncorrelated. White > noise usua

Any noise other than white noise is correlated, by definition. That's what "white noise" means - uncorrelated. Correlation in the time domain is equivalent to non-constant shape in the frequency domain. Ethan On Thu, Apr 14, 2016 at 12:24 PM, Seth Nickell wrote: > Maybe stupid question: Is pink

[music-dsp] Anyone using unums?

2016-04-14 Thread Alan Wolfe
I came across unums a couple weeks back, which seem to be a plausibe replacement for floating point (pros and cons to it vs floating point). One interesting thing is that division is that addition, subtraction, multiplication and division are all single flop operations and are on "equal footing".

ah ok thanks. This list has been around a long while hehe. http://music.columbia.edu/cmc/music-dsp/musicdsparchives.html points to http://music.columbia.edu/pipermail/music-dsp/ but apparently the real one is here in the email. maybe we should update that first link or something? not a biggie
