resample [ rolloff [ beta ] ]
Translate input sampling rate to output sampling
rate via simulated analog filtration. This
- method is slow and uses lots of RAM, but gives
- much better results then rate (This has empiri-
- cally been shown to be false. The resample
- algorthym needs to be updated from its original
- source).
+ method is slower than rate, but gives much bet-
+ ter results. rolloff refers to the cut-off fre-
+ quency of the low pass filter and is given in
+ terms of the Nyquist frequency for the lower
+ sample rate. rolloff therefor should be some-
+ thing between 0. and 1., in practice 0.8-0.95.
+ beta trades stop band rejection against transi-
+ tion width from passband to stop band. Larger
+ beta means a slower transition and greater stop-
+ band rejection. beta should be at least greater
+ than 2. The default is rollof 0.8, beta 17.5,
+ which is rather conservative with respect to
+ aliasing. Lower beta and higher rolloff values
+ preserve more high frequency signal energy, but
+ introduce measurable artifacts.
