/* * July 5, 1991 * * Deemphases Filter * * Fixed deemphasis filter for processing pre-emphasized audio cd samples * 09/02/98 (c) Heiko Eissfeldt * License: LGPL (Lesser Gnu Public License) * * This implements the inverse filter of the optional pre-emphasis stage as * defined by ISO 908 (describing the audio cd format). * * Background: * In the early days of audio cds, there were recording problems * with noise (for example in classical recordings). The high dynamics * of audio cds exposed these recording errors a lot. * * The commonly used solution at that time was to 'pre-emphasize' the * trebles to have a better signal-noise-ratio. That is trebles were * amplified before recording, so that they would give a stronger * signal compared to the underlying (tape)noise. * * For that purpose the audio signal was prefiltered with the following * frequency response (simple first order filter): * * V (in dB) * ^ * | * | _________________ * | / * | / | * | 20 dB / decade ->/ | * | / | * |____________________/_ _ |_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ lg f * |0 dB | | * | | | * | | | * 3.1KHz ca. 10KHz * * So the recorded audio signal has amplified trebles compared to the * original. * HiFi cd players do correct this by applying an inverse filter * automatically, the cd-rom drives or cd burners used by digital * sampling programs (like cdda2wav) however do not. * * So, this is what this effect does. * * Here is the gnuplot file for the frequency response of the deemphasis.
