butterlp — A low-pass Butterworth filter.
Implementation of a second-order low-pass Butterworth filter. This opcode can also be written as butlp.
These filters are Butterworth second-order IIR filters. They are slightly slower than the original filters in Csound, but they offer an almost flat passband and very good precision and stopband attenuation.
asig -- Input signal to be filtered.
kfreq -- Cutoff or center frequency for each of the filters.
Here is an example of the butterlp opcode. It uses the file butterlp.csd.
