Matlab listing: oboeanal.m

The following Matlab script illustrates use of the findpeaks function above to determine the pitch of an oboe tone (given the general location of the correct spectral peak) and configure a spectrum analysis using the rectangular, Hamming, and Blackman windows. This script was used to create Figures 3.16 through 3.18.
