average˜

Regarding rms, I can't find a reference that gives values for sin/saw waves, so I'm not sure if max is doing it wrong/differently than you'd expect.

As far as an auto level match, take the averages of signals A and B and then divide average B by average A. Multiply the actual A signal by the product of that division. This will make A match the average level of B.

A more interesting way to do this would be to average the two averages to find the mean level between the signals, and then bring BOTH inputs to that level via the division method, rather than one to the other.

p.s. throw an abs~ pre the input of average~ to make your stuff work in positive values.

the problem is that average~ gives a right rms value

for the sine wave (0.707) and wrong rms values for other

waveshapes (for example 0.46 circa for saw~ and so on)...

So it would be difficult to take averages of two different

So how to take a right average to make the operation

the problem is that average~ gives a right rms value
for the sine wave (0.707) and wrong rms values for other
waveshapes (for example 0.46 circa for saw~ and so on)...
So it would be difficult to take averages of two different
signals.
So how to take a right average to make the operation
you wrote?

I don't really know what the average~ rms value should be for saw~ but 

there's something that you need to consider, saw~ is an anti aliased

I don't really know what the average~ rms value should be for saw~ but  
there's something that you need to consider, saw~ is an anti aliased  
oscillator. And not a full saw waveform.
