T14 - Untangling the Comb Filter
Presenter:

Abstract:
All audio experts are familiar with the comb filter. This tutorial gets precise—describing, defining, visualizing, and quantifying this ever-present, always-important property of audio. The radical alteration to frequency content caused by comb filtering is shown to be a problem that can be avoided or minimized in some instances, a negligible factor in others, and a positive production technique worthy of emphasis in yet other situations. Through a more complete understanding of this effect, we can track and mix with confidence, employing comb filtering for practical, technical, and creative sonic benefits.
