Learning Outcomes
On completion of this course, the student will be able to:
  1. Demonstrate a technical understanding of Fourier anaylsis, especially as applied to discrete time audio signals, as well as an understanding of the functioning of various audio effects, including chorus, flanging, and phasors.
  2. Evidence an understanding of the short time Fourier transformation, and phase vocoder based time stretching and pitch shifting algorithms, at the algebraic and programming levels.
  3. Demonstrate an understanding of simple digital filter structures as used in audio applications and an understanding of discrete inner product spaces, and the concept of signal orthogonality.
  4. Evidence an understanding of the underpinnings and implications of the audio sampling theorem and have gained facility in the Matlab programming language.
