FrameCompare | SuperCollider 3.12.2 Help

Description

Given two FFT chains, this UGen calculates the MSE between the magnitudes of these two inputs and provides a continuous analytic similarity rating (lower the value, more similar the inputs). In it's current state, only hanning window should be used (wintype: 1).

Class Methods

FrameCompare.kr(buffer1, buffer2, wAmount: 0.5)

Arguments:

buffer1	FFT chain1
buffer2	FFT chain2
wAmount	Influence of the weight matrix (should be between 0 and 1). Weight matrix helps to minimize errors on regions with more energy.
