AntiVuvuzelaFilter
๐ต Noise filter for clear audio ๐๏ธ
Anti-Vuvuzela Filter is an open-source project dedicated to second-order analog filters and beyond. This project was initially developed to design an โanti-vuvuzelaโ filter, aiming to attenuate the distinctive and persistent sound of vuvuzelas while preserving the clarity of commentatorsโ voices during the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
๐ฏ Purpose
- ๐ Targeted Noise Reduction: Specifically designed to attenuate vuvuzela noise while maintaining the intelligibility of speech.
- ๐ Second-Order Analog Filtering: Utilizing advanced filtering techniques for efficient noise cancellation.
- ๐ ๏ธ Open-source and Customizable: Modify and adapt the design for other audio filtering applications.
