FractionalDelayV2

Overview

Provides fractional delay

Discussion

This subsystem implements a delay module providing a fractional number of samples of delay. A delay of the form N.x may be specified where N is an integer number of samples and x is a float between 0.0 and 1.0. The N.x delay is achieved by cascading a sample delay module and a FIR filter. The FIR filter is designed to provide the fractional portion of the delay between 0.0 to 1.0. The delay of N.x samples can be set in real time with an inspector. Each time N.x is changed a new set of filter coefficients is computed, and the internal sample delay module is set to N. NOTE: The FIR filter itself has a delay of 20 samples. Thus this module has a minimum delay of 20 samples. This is shown on the inspector. Input and output data for this module are floating point.
