noise from fft() in VDSP library

Started by prasanth rajagopal December 8, 2005
hi,
   the fft() and ifft() in library of the VDSP gives values which are 4 times scaled..Now if I want to use this for an audio algorithm, I am getting large noises.. Is there a remedy? Do everyone get it same? Then where do I get an error free 16 bit implementation of FFT in blackfin?

with regards,
prasanth

What are you doing in between? If you just run fft and then ifft I'd
expect a difference in output, and that could be called noise. If you try
to filter with an fft and ifft, you need to be careful.

The best remedy is to write your own software that does exactly what you
want.
