#N canvas 64 77 982 581 12; #X text 759 566 updated for Pd version 0.26; #X text 67 8 ENVELOPE FOLLOWERS; #X text 17 28 The env~ object reports ths RMS signal level over the last 256 samples (by default) or any other power of 2 that's at least twice the block size. The analysis is done in an overlapped fashion so that results appear every N/2 points if N is the analysis window size. So the larger the window \, the stabler the result and the less frequently it appears. Computation time doesn't depend heavily on N.; #X text 471 28 Envelope followers are frequently used to detect attacks and periods of silence. (There are fancier attack detectors out there \, though.) Here is a simple threshold-based attack and rest detector.; #X obj 152 160 dbtorms; #X floatatom 75 142; #X obj 75 165 osc~ 440; #X obj 75 188 *~ 0; #X obj 75 211 env~; #X floatatom 136 216; #X floatatom 152 137; #X msg 219 155 \; pd dsp 1; #X obj 87 307 t b f; #X floatatom 87 330; #X obj 94 385 pack; #X text 198 215 note 3.01 dB difference between peak and RMS amplitudes.; #X obj 94 408 route 0 1; #X obj 94 431 > 55; #X obj 139 433 < 45; #X obj 94 454 sel 1; #X obj 139 456 sel 1; #X msg 16 494 1; #X msg 45 494 0; #X obj 94 494 print attack; #X obj 87 365 != 0; #X obj 517 267 t b f; #X floatatom 517 290; #X obj 524 348 pack; #X obj 524 371 route 0 1; #X obj 524 404 sel 1; #X msg 458 525 1; #X msg 488 525 0; #X obj 517 326 != 0; #X obj 547 290 < 45; #X obj 542 441 timer; #X obj 600 371 sel 0; #X obj 616 496 sel 0; #X obj 542 487 sel 1; #X obj 542 528 print rest; #X obj 542 464 > 1000; #X text 125 330 state -- 1 if waiting for low threshold \,; #X text 151 345 0 if we've attained it and now want the; #X text 180 359 high one.; #X text 165 408 route the RMS value according to state; #X text 191 435 if off \, 55 dB means attack.
