  1. LPC-analysis-VOSIM-resynthesis Combined class December 18 th 2012 Johan & Peter Institute of Sonology Royal Conservatory, The Hague

  2. A(t) t A(t) F F t s(t) t AM model constant

  3. A(t) t A F(t) F t s(t) t FM model constant

  4. A(t) t A(t) F(t) F(t) t s(t) t FM & AM combined:Instantaneous Frequency (IF)-model

  5. Model: one “phasor” or sine wave with amplitude and frequency varying over time. • One sine wave only, no other frequency components!? • But with FM we can create complex waveforms! • Rapid amplitude changes will deform the sine wave too and also create a more complex waveform…. So: • The frequency width or content depends on the speed of variation that we allow for the control. • Another key concept is: To what degree is a description “band limited”

  6. Fourier model Amplitude only[bands with constant frequency] A A Frequency Sweep A time

  7. Example: exponential sweep through octave bands 11 kHz .. > 22 kHz 5,5 kHz .. 11 kHz 2750 Hz .. 5,5 kHz 1375 Hz .. 2750 Hz . 688 Hz .. 1375 Hz 344 Hz .. 688 Hz 172 Hz .. 344 Hz 86 Hz .. 172 Hz 43 Hz .. 86 Hz < 43 Hz

  8. Model: one “phasor” or sine wave with amplitude and frequency varying over time. • The frequency width or content depends on the speed of variation that we allow for the control. • The frequency width or frequency content controls the speed of variation that of the A(t) and F(t) signals. • The key concept is: To what degree is a description “band limited”? • Other useful insight: Phase change per time step is frequency.

  9. Phase Vocoder! [still bands with constant frequency]Fourier model, +phase change (=freq.) info A F A Frequency F Sweep A F time

  10. Options: • FFT (narrow band): -Many bands closely spaced, -Reduced frequency and amplitude variation.-Slow update [frame-by-frame] of A(t) and F(t) info.-Take-over points produce ripples. • Wide bands (today):-A(t) and F(t) vary over larger ranges.-faster variations and more continuous. • One band only (Can you implement this? Yes you can!):-Instant A(t) and F(t) update per sample.

  15. What is truly there after re-synthesis

  16. LPC is an (inverse) filter design method. • It is mathematical procedure based on matrix calculus / linear algebra. • It is not one method but a group of methods. • It designs an “inverse” filter that could optimally remove the spectrum energy that exist in a certain signal. • It does this by searching the best band stop filters to remove the energy in a resonance. • If you know the best setting to remove energy, than you know the frequencies and bandwidths of the resonance frequencies too.

  17. LPC is an (inverse) filter design method. • Input is typically a signal that is spectrally shaped by band filtering. • Next, the filter order (div 2) controls the number of anti-resonances that are modeled. • The result of the design procedure is a so-called error signal or residue which indicates how successful the process was. • Successive removal of resonances will result in lower energy error signal that spectrally is maximally flat or white. • This error signal or residue may still be periodic and thus have a harmonic structure.
