I suggest that, since 3800 Hz energy in music will be mostly harmonics of lower frequency tones, the thing to do is to put the music through a fuzzbox then filter out the 3800 Hz energy of the generated harmonics and intermodulation products. This has the advantage of correlating the synthetic stuff with the music that is already present - something the ear is extremely sensitive to. -- Doug Collinge School of Music, University of Victoria, PO Box 1700, Victoria, B.C., Canada, V8W 2Y2 collinge@uvunix.BITNET decvax!uw-beaver!uvicctr!collinge ubc-vision!uvicctr!collinge
