3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: foo_vis_spectrum_analyzer
Last post by TF3RDL -
Don't we forget about the "incorrect" looking sinc/Lanczos FFT interpolation for lower frequencies part in the default FFT mode? This is the most obvious discrepancy between my own CodePen project " Frequency bands spectrum analyzer using either FFT or CQT" and your fb2k visualization component
BTW, here's the spectrum of a 50Hz currently looks like using this component:
X

Also, I've fudged around with "lanzcos()" function on my spectrum analyzer project coded in JS to remove the multiplication by "alternating pattern" (which I meant by flipping a sign of both real and imaginary parts of FFT bins on every odd index) and it is not the same as this image above:

Support - (fb2k) / Re: Foobar seems to ignore LFE channel.

Your output has always been stereo if Windows mixer says you have stereo speakers.
I see. Well, I set it to 7.1 and now LFE is heard with all outputs. Weird to have so little control over this in Foobar, and even less ability to tell what is happening. IMO it's also strange that LFE is excluded from downmixing. Well, et least it made me realize some of my configuration needed changing.

Maybe GCC 14 has changed something. @KevinB52379 may check the binary compiled with MINGW/GCC 14.1.0 i attached.

Thank you for the binary, i suppose it is generic build without "fast math" code. I do not want to compare here apples with oranges, but after trying the latest generic flac binaries from NetRanger (GCC14.1 & Clang18.1.4), the Clang version gives me consistently faster results for files 16-24/44 against GCC14.1 (5-8% speedup with Intel 8.gen CPU). I do not want to speculate about the reason, as i didn't done that much tests with various builds, so maybe Clang is rather constant through different versions, while GCC14.1 slowed down the performance slightly because of more complex changes..?
Can you please compile a generic Clang 18.1.4 binary of hmp3 with latest source code changes as well?

Your question has nothing to do with SMP or these scripts, so I would recommend you to open a new thread at the suppor forum and ask there for help. It seems you only need tagging multiple tracks with specific values, so I would say the masstagger component would help you there (which can be bound to a key shortcut).
