摘要
Distortion modeling produces distortion models for use by a distortion synthesizer to synthesize the harmonic distortion effects of audio distortion devices. A sinusoidal waveform is distorted by an audio distortion device and analyzed using a Fourier transform to produce a distortion model comprising harmonic amplitude and phase parameters. A phase correction process compensates for phase shifts induced by the audio distortion device. The distortion synthesizer uses a distortion function that distorts a digital audio signal according to the distortion model. The distortion model can be modified to alter the distortion effect and can be stored in a data-storage device for later retrieval. A frequency bandsplitter and signal mixer allow the distortion effect to be applied only to the low frequency content of the digital audio signal, thus providing spectral headroom to suppress the production of aliasing noise. Aliasing-noise suppression is provided for a full-bandwidth signal by up-converting the sampling rate of the signal before applying the distortion function and down-converting the sampling rate afterwards. A process is provided to remove the direct-current component that may be induced into the signal by the distortion function.
