NAME

sfkaiser − Apply a "Kaiser" filter to a soundfile.

SYNOPSIS

sfkaiser inputSound.wav outputSound.wav

DESCRIPTION

sfkaiser reads in inputSound.wav then writes out a filtered version to outputSound.wav .

OPTIONS

There are no options to the sfkaiser program, since it prompts the user for all the information it needs.

USAGE

sfkaiser snd1.wav snd2.aiff

Apply the filter to snd1.wav and put the results in snd2.aiff .

The program will prompt the user for

the type of filter desired (lp [lowpass], hp [highpass], bp [bandpass], bs [bandstop]);

the desired stopband attenuation in dB;

the passband edge frequency in Hertz;

the stopband edge frequency in Hertz.

The program will then calculate the coefficients according to the Kaiser filter formulas, filter the file, and save the result in snd1.aiff .

BUGS

This program will only work with WAVE, AIFF, AIFC, and the old NeXT/Sun "snd" format soundfiles, that are 16-bit PCM encoded, with 1 or 2 channels.
