Hey Hans,<div><br></div><div>I had some time to go over this today, and I think I've got the response working. I didn't document my changes as I went along (sorry), but I think I remembered them all and wrote them at the top of the attached script. Also, I should take back what I said earlier about the bandwidth. Given this gui, it makes sense for it to be BW.</div>

You are calculating alpha for bandwidth instead of Q. I'm guessing you're just borrowing what is in the ggee externals (given the code's comments), because it's done the same way there, but it's not really conventional for a lowpass filter. That's really more for bandpass, notch, and peaking filters. Using Q is also a simpler calculation: alpha = sin(omega)/(2*Q). With Q set to .7071 (or -3 dBfs), you have a filter with no resonance, which makes sense because the cutoff frequency for a lowpass filter is defined as the frequency where the response falls be 3 dB. This is also how Max's [filtergraph~] works.<div>

<div><br></div><div>The ggee externals, as far as I can tell, are all based on this cookbook, though with mistakes like using BW instead of Q.</div><div><br></div><div>Hope that helps,</div><div>.mmb<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">
