11 1/3 Octave Spectrum Analyser.
The 1/3 Octave Analyser with 'Track' activated. (Section 11.1.2)
In the analysis of sound, it has always been important to describe the
frequency content of a signal. Traditionally, this has been done using a filter
bank containing a number of filters with relative bandwidths, for example 1/3
Octave. The signal being filtered passes through one filter at a time. Once the
signal for a filter has been detected and its value determined, then the next
filter is reviewed.
The left most bar on the 1/3 Octave Analyser (blue) is an input level indicator
for the Analyser. Since the Input signal contains the energy from the entire 30
band combined, this bar will normally show a higher value than any of the
separate 1/3 Octave bands.
To separate the individual bands easier, the 1kHz band has been coloured
yellow.
Please refer to section 10.1 'Routing Audio to the Analyser Applications.' for
details about selecting the source signal for the Analyser in the Audio Matrix.
11.1 Ballistic Setup for the 1/3 Octave Analyser.
To obtain improved flexibility of the 30 band 1/3 Octave Analyser it is possible
to adjust several of the Meter Ballistics. As well as the Meter Response time it
is also possible to set the Meter Peak/Hold functions.
To alter the ballistics of the Analyser enter the [SETUP] Menu from the ‘1/3
Octave Base Menu’.
