Learning Outcomes
On completion of this course, the student will be able to:
- A thorough and detailed technical and mathematical understanding of Fourier Theory with regard to audio signal processing.
- The ability to program audio processing and DSP code in the Matlab language
- The ability to design and program specialised signal processing operations, such as the phase vocoder, and various audio effects including flangers, chorusers and artificial reverberation.
- An increased facility with various mathematical concepts, including complex number representations, trigonometry, inner product descriptions, orthogonality as well as some linear algebra.
- An understanding of, and the ability to program digital fillter structures.
