This notebook shows a simple way to process audio files (in WAV format)
in a block-by-block fashion; this is useful in two cases
1. when you want to process a data stream in real time but you can
accept a small processing delay; in this case a buffered approach
can yield computational gains
2. when you need to process a large file that does not fit entirely

In this notebook we will look at the practical issues associated to
plotting the DFT and in particular the DFT of real-world signals. We
will examine how to map the DFT coefficients to real-world frequencies
and we will investigate the frequency resolution of the DFT and the
effects of zero padding.

SARS-CoV-2 virus can be roughly modeled, at least in its inital phase,

The Karplus-Strong algorithm is a simple method to generate synthetic
sounds with arbitrary pitch. In this notebook we will explore a few
variations of the method to illustrate some basic notions of
discrete-time signal processing.

In this notebook we will explore various ways to implement a system
that changes the voice of a speaker. Typical applications for these
techniques, strictly sorted by plausibility, include international spy
missions and prank telephone calls, and devices such as the one
displayed here can be easily bought on the web... or in a novelty shop.

based on the short-time Fourier transform.

The Parks-McClellan (PM) algorithm is a clever application of advanced
polynomial fitting techniques to the problem of FIR filter design. In
this notebook we will explore the key ideas behind the method by
considering the design of a simple Type-I lowpass filter.
