Overview

The Signal Generator is able to synthesize silence, tones, and noise. This is useful for creating test tones, calibration tones for post production delivery specs, repairing DC offset, and even using it as a “bleep” module to eliminate obscenities in a dialogue edit.

The Signal Generator module is capable of generating extremely accurate test tones for research and testing purposes.

Silence

Silence generates digital silence, which can be used to adjust spacing or duration of your file.

DC Offset

Creates or removes positive or negative amounts of DC offset.

Tones

The Tones tab allows you to generate signals.

Noise

Allows you to generate noise of many different types, with a user definable RMS level. The noise types include:

Noise color defines the spectral shape: white noise has flat power spectrum, pink noise decays at 3 dB/octave rate, while brown noise decays at 6 dB/octave rate.

Gaussian, triangular, uniform, or binary relates to the p.d.f., or probability distribution function, of the noise. It describes how often samples of different amplitude are encountered in the signal. For example, uniform p.d.f. means that all amplitudes below noise peak level are equally popular.
