How to use the FFT like a Pro, Understand the output
Feeling unsure how to use the FFT’s puzzling list of complex numbers that it gives you in its output? Don't worry, you're not alone! This video will show you how to make sense of all that gibberish.
You’ll learn how to convert the position of each item in the output list into a frequency value in Hz and find out how you can increase the resolution of your results. You'll also discover how to calculate the true strength of each frequency component in your signal and unlock the phase information to gain deeper insights into its behavior. ️
Don’t let the output of the FFT baffle you anymore. Take control of your signal analysis with these easy tips.
Understanding the Fourier Transform isn't just about using it - it's about unlocking its true potential. Imagine interpreting results with confidence, troubleshooting issues like a pro, and squeezing even more insights from your data.
That's why I've created "How the Fourier Transform Works," an online course that breaks down the mathematical complexities of the Fourier Transform into clear, bite-sized lessons. No more feeling lost in equations!
The official release is still a few months away, but you can be one of 50 early birds and get 50% off the course price, instant access to the first 15 lectures, and automatic updates as new lectures are added.

An Introduction to the Fourier Transform
zhlédnutí 6KPřed 8 měsíci
In this engaging introduction to the Fourier Transform, we use a fun Lego analogy to understand what the Fourier Transform is. Just as a toy car can be assembled from individual Lego bricks, each brick with properties like its color, its shape, and its position in the car, we'll see how signals can be built from individual sinusoids, each sinusoid with properties like its frequency, its amplitu...

    Loved this video, it helped me a lot, however, when I played my keyboard along with your song at the end, I had to play your song in 'F' to match the pitch from your song you said you were playing in 'C'. So I had to re-diagram your C scale alongside my F scale. Your 'confirmation' passage also included a minor third you failed to mention, so your modulation turned out to be confusing. It's OK, I finally figure it out. Thanks again for the valuable information.

    Pretty interesting. I studied all of this in college, but never really understood it. You might also have mentioned that e (I did not know that Euler named the symbol after himself) is the base of natural logarithms. Or is that the subject for another video?

    Hey, I got an important message: Jesus Christ is God in human form. He loves you, and he wants to give you peace, purpose & fulfilment, just as he did with me. Repent (change your mind on and turn from the practice of sin/moral wrongdoing - God will help you with this if you let him), believe the gospel of Christ (the perfect life he lived, the brutal death he died - for our sins btw - his burial and his resurrection after 3 days), be baptised in his name - the name of Jesus Christ - and follow him, as he does want a personal, spiritual relationship with us all - to love us and protect us, like a father would for his children. Apologies for this unexpected mini-essay, but death comes like a thief in the night and takes everyone by storm because people nowadays push it to the side and focus on the pleasures of this broken world. Deep down we all know that there is meaning in life, and that we are going to be held accountable for our actions afterwards - hence why we have a conscience, and why guilt and shame are a part of the human experience. Yet, God (the creator of reality btw), out of his love and mercy, has shown us the way through death and into eternal life, so that we don’t get punished for the evil that we all too often commit. He doesn’t want any of us to experience eternal death, as he made us all with EXTREME value, hence why he commands us all to repent and believe in what his son has done for us - as only he’s taken the death penalty that we deserve and no one else. May God bless you all 🙏🏾

    • @MarkNewmanEducation
      @MarkNewmanEducation Před měsícem

      The Z transform is the digital version of the Laplace transform. The Fourier Transform builds signals out sinusoids with constant amplitude. The Laplace transform builds signals out of decaying sinusoids. They both do a similar job but in a different way.
