Description::
|
|
The inverse fast fourier transform converts from frequency content to a
|
|
signal.
|
|
|
|
The fast fourier transform analyzes the frequency content of a signal. The IFFT UGen converts this emphasis::frequency-domain:: information back into emphasis::time-domain:: audio data. Most often this is used as the end of a process which begins with link::Classes/FFT::, followed by frequency-domain processing using PV (phase-vocoder) UGens, followed by IFFT.
|
|
|
|
classmethods::
|
|
|
|
method::new, ar, kr
|
|
returns a time domain signal from converting the FFT frequency domain signal chain. The *new method is equivalent to the *ar message returns an audio rate signal.
|
|
|
|
argument::buffer
|
|
|
|
The FFT "chain" signal coming originally from an FFT UGen, perhaps via other PV UGens.
|
|
|
|
argument:: wintype
|
|
Defines how the data is windowed:
|
|
table::
|
|
## -1 || strong::rectangular:: windowing, simple but typically not recommended;
|
|
## 0 || (the default) strong::Sine:: windowing, typically recommended for phase-vocoder work;
|
|
## 1 || strong::Hann:: windowing, typically recommended for analysis work.
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
argument:: winsize
|
|
Can be used to account for zero-padding, in the same way as the link::Classes/FFT:: UGen.
|
|
|
|
returns::
|
|
The emphasis::time-domain:: audio signal.
|
|
|
|
discussion::
|
|
The IFFT UGen converts the FFT data in-place (in the original FFT buffer) and overlap-adds the result to produce a continuous signal at its output.
|
|
|
|
Examples::
|
|
|
|
code::
|
|
|
|
// without any modification, convert FFT chain (frequency domain signal) back to audio (time domain signal)
|
|
(
|
|
{ var in, chain;
|
|
in = WhiteNoise.ar;
|
|
chain = FFT(LocalBuf(2048), in);
|
|
IFFT.ar(chain) * -20.dbamp // inverse FFT
|
|
}.play;
|
|
)
