[PD] Filters...

Sorry, the only solutions I've ever known is to antialias the signal 
sources by low-pass filtering them before they reach a sampling rate 
where they could alias, or by using band-limited signal sources in some 
way or another. Once the aliased frequencies are in, it's pretty near 
impossible to get them out.

Best!
