  1. Secret Rabbit Code (aka libsamplerate) is a Sample Rate Converter
  2. for audio. One example of where such a thing would be useful is
  3. converting audio from the CD sample rate of 44.1kHz to the 48kHz
  4. sample rate used by DAT players.
  5. SRC is capable of arbitrary and time varying conversions; from
  6. downsampling by a factor of 256 to upsampling by the same factor.
  7. Arbitrary in this case means that the ratio of input and output
  8. sample rates can be an irrational number. The conversion ratio
  9. can also vary with time for speeding up and slowing down effects.
  10. SRC provides a small set of converters to allow quality to be
  11. traded off against computation cost. The current best converter
  12. provides a signal-to-noise ratio of 97dB with -3dB passband
  13. extending from DC to 96% of the theoretical best bandwidth for
  14. a given pair of input and output sample rates.
