#X text 86 41 ENVELOPE FOLLOWERS;
#X text 68 224 The env~ object reports the RMS signal level over the
last 256 samples (by default) or any other power of 2 that's at least
twice the block size. The analysis is done in an overlapped fashion
so that results appear every N/2 points if N is the analysis window
size. So the larger the window \, the stabler the result and the less
frequently it appears. Computation time doesn't depend heavily on N.

#X text 67 349 Envelope followers are frequently used to detect attacks
and periods of silence. (There are fancier attack detectors out there
\, though.) Here is a simple threshold-based attack and rest detector.

on and off. If on \, a test is run to determine whether to turn off
\, and vice versa. The tests are run at each output of the rms~ object.
