Sampler anti-aliasing and pitch-shifting comparison

Interesting page testing a number of samplers. Samples, results and more listed. They also have an interesting analogy of audio aliasing and film (see below). Title link takes you there. Via the mighty Moogulator blog.



"It's easiest to describe aliasing in terms of a visual sampling system we all know and love - —movies. If you've ever watched a western and seen the wheel of a rolling wagon appear to be going backwards, you've witnessed aliasing. The movie's frame rate isn't adequate to describe the rotational frequency of the wheel, and our eyes are deceived by the misinformation!"
