Urs,

Thanks for the fast reply! I've heard of "brick wall limiters" being used to eliminate high peaks (i.e. only allow amplitudes below some threshold), but never for the reverse (allowing only samples above a certain amplitude threshold).

If AUPeakLimiter is capable of such a thing, then my job just got a lot easier. Do you know of any example code or documentation online? A Google search doesn't turn up anything useful.

Thanks,

On the other hand, there's an AU plugin called something like "Rider" which slowly adjusts the audio gain to a certain level... dunno if that is what you're after...

Hi,

I searched through the list archives and could not find an answer to this seemingly simple question. The application I'm working on needs to perform some processing on samples from a microphone, but only if the volume level of those samples exceeds some threshold.

Is there a way to normalize the samples passed to my IOProc so that that every amplitude value lies within the range {-1.0, 1.0}? I get different amplitude ranges for different microphones, even with identical volume settings.

Am I missing something?

Thanks,
