In the second in our series on using the FFT in Max, spend 30 minutes exploring FFT windowing and applying this new knowledge to the noise reduction and Forbidden Planet patches we built in Part 1.

Great tutorial.  Looking forward to part 3 already. How could you store different fft frames, in a file or a matrix for later re-use?


@Graeme: yes, you can. For instance these tutorials (data written in a matrix), or in the Max examples, Extras -> Examples Overview -> MSP -> phase-vocoder-sampler (data written in a buffer~).


The windows in the fft-noise-reduction subpatch should have been squared to be correct. See also "MSP Analysis Tutorial 3: Using the FFT" in the Max Reference documentation.
