biquada

biquada — A sweepable general purpose biquadratic digital filter with a-rate parameters.

Description

A sweepable general purpose biquadratic digital filter.

Syntax

ares biquada asig, ab0, ab1, ab2, aa0, aa1, aa2 [, iskip]

Initialization

iskip (optional, default=0) -- if non-zero, intialization will be skipped. Default value 0. (New in Csound version 3.50)

Performance

asig -- input signal

biquada is a general purpose biquadratic digital filter of the form:


  a0*y(n) + a1*y[n-1] + a2*y[n-2] = b0*x[n] + b1*x[n-1] + b2*x[n-2]
      

This filter has the following frequency response:


         B(Z)   b0 + b1*Z-1  + b2*Z-2
  H(Z) = ---- = ------------------
         A(Z)   a0 + a1*Z-1  + a2*Z-2
      

This type of filter is often encountered in digital signal processing literature. It allows six user-defined a-rate coefficients.

Examples

Here is an example of the biquada opcode. It uses the file Play biquad.csd
