As per subject, I have freq split a track to 2 tracks with a band split at 100hz
I set a freq selection at 100hz and saved the selection
I copied the selection to a new layer and put that on tack A
I recalled the selection and inverted frequencies (with a 10hz face)
Copied to a new layer and put that on track B
The original track was phase inverted
Original Track, Track A & B were all sent to a summing buss
The output is nowhere near a null. no other processing was applied, a simple crossover in essence and it fails pretty badly
This raises serious concerns about frequency recombinationā¦and this is without any processing being applied
Am I doing something wrong? Is there a transition beside freq fade that can razor cut and produce true null?
Unless Im missing something hereā¦its a showstopper for me Im afraidā¦as far as using it for this type of application; linear phase filters might be the real deal except the ones in Cubase are far from linkwitz/linear phase
Here is what happens graphically when I cut/invert/cut. The line of residue is clearly visibleā¦how is this resolved?
@Aurasphere Trying to invert a selection with fading wonāt really get you what youāre looking for.
But hereās the procedure for what you want to do:
Duplicate original to layer A and layer B
Cut some frequencies from layer A, with fading if you want
Duplicate layer A to layer A (duplicate), phase invert it (next to the volume control) and put it below layer B
Merge layer A (duplicate) into layer B using Layer > Merge Up.
Youāll get layer A and layer B, a perfect decomposition of the Original layer into 2 layers.
Im not treating it as realtimeā¦Im copy/pasting the results of a static process; in the context of using an ara process ie dragging back into the timeline, latency is not relevant.
Thats my problem? Yep, need to know I can trust processesā¦I want to know how to do things best practice in an abstract so I understand the process and can execute it a component level for propogation into composite processā¦this is called learning.
Specifically Im trying to get the equivalent of using eg a linkwitz/linear phase eg
I use to just apply plugin process to split bands in cubase 5 ie using QRange which has linear phase/linkwitz. This produces a perfect nullā¦and my question relates to this simple example but as a newb with much siltation, Im having trouble achieving the analog of thisā¦
Thanks for your exampleā¦thats exactly what I needed to know ie decomposition and reassembly is a trusted outcome, fidelity wise. Ill try it out.
Now to try and dissassemble a composite track eg cajon to extract not only a kick/snare freq wise but hopefully āchoose similiarā will be the solution
