pvsmooth — Smooth the amplitude and frequency time functions of a pv stream using parallel 1st order lowpass IIR filters with time-varying cutoff frequency.
Smooth the amplitude and frequency time functions of a pv stream using a 1st order lowpass IIR with time-varying cutoff frequency. This opcode uses the same filter as the 'tone' opcode, but this time acting separately on the amplitude and frequency time functions that make up a pv stream. The cutoff frequency parameter runs at the control-rate, but unlike tone and tonek, it is not specified in Hz, but as fractions of 1/2 frame-rate (actually the pv stream sampling rate), which is easier to understand. This means that the highest cutoff frequency is 1 and the lowest 0; the lower the frequency the smoother the functions and more pronounced the effect will be. This opcode produces effects that are more or less similar to pvsblur, but with two important differences: 1.smoothing of amplitudes and frequencies use separate sets of filters; and 2. there is no increase in computational cost when higher amounts of 'blurring' (smoothing) are desired.
fsig -- output pv stream
fsigin -- input pv stream.
kacf -- amount of cutoff frequency for amplitude function filtering, between 0 and 1, in fractions of 1/2 frame-rate.
kfcf -- amount of cutoff frequency for frequency function filtering, between 0 and 1, in fractions of 1/2 frame-rate.

---|---|
It is unsafe to use the same f-variable for both input and output of pvs opcodes. Using the same one might lead to undefined behavior on some opcodes. Use a different one on the left and right sides of the opcode. |
Example 366. Example
asig1 in ; input fim pvsanal asig1,1024,256,1024,0 ; pvoc analysis fou pvsmooth fim, 0.01, 0.01 ; smooth with cf at 1% of 1/2 frame-rate (ca 8.6 Hz) aout pvsynth fou ; pvoc synthesis
In the example above the input signal will be smoothed/blurred by pvsmooth with a cutoff frequency of 1% of 1/2 frame-rate (which is about 172Hz, so the cf is about 8.6Hz) .
