"With Capstan there is now for the first time a program capable of
removing
wow and flutter from musical recordings - whether on tape, compact
cassette,
wax, shellac or vinyl. Capstan detects wow and flutter by analyzing the
musical material itself, so the medium is of no relevance. In this,
Capstan
is clearly superior to solutions such as bias tracking, because Capstan
still works even if the tape has already been copied several times or
digitized only in low resolution."
I'm curious as to how Capstan distinguishes between flutter and vibrato --
or simply the fact that even a note played without intentional vibrato might
not have a steady pitch.
And here's an example of why I'm so insistent on defining "science" as the
process of asking the right questions. These are my "right questions" about
Capstan -- Has anyone ever applied it to a purely digital recording? If so,
what happened?
