## Detailed Description

Detect peaks in the volume for steering normalizers and dynamic range compressors.

While normalizers and dynamic range controls are out of the scope of gavl, some low-level functionality can be provided

## Typedef Documentation

## ◆ gavl_peak_detector_t

typedef struct gavl_peak_detector_s gavl_peak_detector_t

Opaque structure for peak detector.

You don't want to know what's inside.

## Function Documentation

## ◆ gavl_peak_detector_create()

GAVL_PUBLIC gavl_peak_detector_t * gavl_peak_detector_create | ( |  | ) |

Create peak detector.

Returns
  A newly allocated peak detector

## ◆ gavl_peak_detector_destroy()

GAVL_PUBLIC void gavl_peak_detector_destroy | ( | gavl_peak_detector_t * | pd | ) |

Destroys a peak detector and frees all associated memory.

Parameters

  pd | A peak detector

## ◆ gavl_peak_detector_set_format()

GAVL_PUBLIC void gavl_peak_detector_set_format | ( | gavl_peak_detector_t * | pd,
|  | const gavl_audio_format_t * | format
| ) |  |

Set format for a peak detector.

Parameters

  pd | A peak detector
  format | The format subsequent frames will be passed with

This function can be called multiple times with one instance. It also calls gavl_peak_detector_reset.

## ◆ gavl_peak_detector_update()

GAVL_PUBLIC void gavl_peak_detector_update | ( | gavl_peak_detector_t * | pd,
|  | gavl_audio_frame_t * | frame
| ) |  |

Feed the peak detector with a new frame.

Parameters

  pd | A peak detector
  frame | An audio frame

## ◆ gavl_peak_detector_get_peak()

GAVL_PUBLIC void gavl_peak_detector_get_peak | ( | gavl_peak_detector_t * | pd,
|  | double * | min,
|  | double * | max,
|  | double * | abs
| ) |  |

Get the peak volume across all channels.

Parameters

  pd | A peak detector
  min | Returns minimum amplitude
  max | Returns maximum amplitude
  abs | Returns maximum absolute amplitude

The returned amplitudes are normalized such that the minimum amplitude corresponds to -1.0, the maximum amplitude corresponds to 1.0.

## ◆ gavl_peak_detector_get_peaks()

GAVL_PUBLIC void gavl_peak_detector_get_peaks | ( | gavl_peak_detector_t * | pd,
|  | double * | min,
|  | double * | max,
|  | double * | abs
| ) |  |

Get the peak volume for all channels separate.

Parameters

  pd | A peak detector
  min | Returns minimum amplitude
  max | Returns maximum amplitude
  abs | Returns maximum absolute amplitude

The returned amplitudes are normalized such that the minimum amplitude corresponds to -1.0, the maximum amplitude corresponds to 1.0.

## ◆ gavl_peak_detector_reset()

GAVL_PUBLIC void gavl_peak_detector_reset | ( | gavl_peak_detector_t * | pd | ) |

Reset a peak detector.

Parameters

  pd | A peak detector
