Term
|
Definition
The output depends on any current, past, or future input. (EQ, reverb, delay, etc.) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The output is not dependent on any current, past, or future input (pre-delay) |
|
|
Term
Linear Time Invariant Filter (LTI) |
|
Definition
A digital filter where there is no harmonic distortion clipping, no intermodulation distortion, both linear and time invariant, is causal. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
LTI filter, both linear and time-invariant. |

Term
|
Definition
A time domain signal that has as high of an amplitude as possible at 0, but has zero amplitude. Characterized by a loud, short sound. The shorter the signal, the wider the spectrum & vice versa. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The response to an impulse, that contains all frequencies in an response at equal amplitudes. Works in the time domain. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The sum of every sample of the input signal, multiplied by the sum of every sample of the impulse, added together, produces a convolved signal.
-Convolved signals will be either scaled or delayed
-The output of the convolved signal should be N+M-1, where the length of output signal is one sample shorter than the sum of the lengths of the two convolved signals put together. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Convolution in the time domain is equal to multiplication in the frequency domain. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
1) Two signals are convolved together in the time domain 2) An FFT occurs to bring the two signals into the frequency domain 3) They are multiplied together; essentially convolving them 4) An IFFT occurs to bring the convolved signal back into the time domain. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
A simple delay, which is added together towards the output Z-^1
*Multiplied by x[n] |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Coefficients are subtracted together from the output.
*Multiplied by y[n] |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Noncausal, LTI, Direct Form II
y[n] = [the sum of all feed forward] coefficients] x[n-i] - [the sum of all feedback coefficients] y [n-j] |
|
|
Term
Finite Impulse Response Filter (FIR) |
|
Definition
A feedforward only filter. |
|
|
Term
Infinite Impulse Response Filter (IIR) |
|
Definition
A feeback filter, that is potentially unstable. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
1st order = y[n] = x[n] + x[n-1]
2nd order = y[n] = 0.5x[n] - 0.5 |

Term
Impulse Response Equation |
|
Definition
x = [1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0] |
|
|
Term
Steady State Filter Response |
|
Definition
A stable input will produce a consistent output. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
an infinite impulse will produce and unstable, infinite response. IIR Filter. |
|
|
Term
Transient Time (Decay TIme) |
|
Definition
The T60 of an impulse for an IIR Filter. The filter order divided by the sample rate for a FIR Filter. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The distance from peak to peak. |
|
|
Term
Center Frequency (fcenter, Q), Resonant Frequency |
|
Definition
One frequency is accentuated, while all others are sharply cutoff; determines the type of filter. |
|
|
Term
Measuring the bandwidth of a filter |
|
Definition
fcenter / bandwidth
Higher bandwidth = the smaller the center frequency will be, producing a duller filter.
Lower bandwidth = higher center frequency and a sharper filter. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Quadratic Equation / Quadratic Equation |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
All frequencies are cancelled out at evenly spaced frequencies.
[1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0] = evenly spaced frequencies, close together [1 0 0 0] = widely spaced apart frequencies |
