Paul ThirdUNDERSTANDING HARMONICS & ALIASING || How to visualise plugin harmonics & how to test audio aliasing
My name is Paul Third and this week I have decided to dive further into ddmf plugindoctor so all you beginner audio engineers / plugin testers can have a better understanding of harmonics in audio plugins when plugin testing, analog emulations and even analog hardware via access analog. I'll also be using fab filter proq3 and a sine tone to show harmonics of analog gear in the daw during plugin testing. I'll show you how to print sweeps and export them into izotope rx7 for spectral analysis and how this method can show you he physical harmonics and aliasing found in the actual audio file.
