Question
Given the signals, $x_1(n), x_2(n), x_3(n)$, and $x_4(n)$ as shown in Figure 6.30. Let all the signals be of length 1024 samples. When transform coded using a 512-point MDCT, which of the signals will result in pre-echo distortion?
Step 1
Pre-echo distortion occurs in transform coding when a sudden onset of a signal (such as a transient) is spread out over the entire transform block, causing audible artifacts before the actual transient. This is particularly problematic in audio coding when using Show more…
