| Target group: | Students in electrical engineering and computer engineering |
| Prerequisites: | Previous knowledge about digital signal processing and linear systems. Some experience with MATLAB is useful, but not mandatory. |
| Contents: |
Students attending this lecture should be able to implement efficient and robust signal processing structures. Knowledge about moving from the analog to the digital domain and vice versa including the involved effects (and trap doors) should be acquired. Also differences (advantages and disadvantages) between time and frequency domain approaches should be learnt. Topic overview:

Audio and Exercise Sheets
Within the lecture several audio and exercise sheets are distributed. A selection can be found below.
| Topic | Explanation | Audio sheet | Exercise sheet |

| Electric guitar distortion | Link | Link | Link |
Within the individual audio sheets you can hear several sound examples. Some of them are specially produced for playback with headphones, some others can be listened to via loudspeakers or headphones. In order to indicate the specific cases, we used the following symbols.
 |
Both, standard loudspeaker and headphone playback is possible. |
 |
Please listen to the effect via standard loudspeakers (studio monitors in best case). The missing extra reverberation of headphone playback might disturb the effect under investigation. |
 |
Please listen to the audio examples via headphones. The stronger reverbereation of standard loudspeaker playback might destroy the effect that should be investigated. |
 |
Neither standard loudspeaker nor headphone playback is possible. This symbol is not yet used in our examples, which is not a surprise, of course. |
