Figure 59. Adobe Audition Spectral View of a Good V.22 Transaction
An important parameter that is not obvious at first glance is the resolution in “bands” of the spectral display. There
is a tradeoff that must always be considered. This is set up in the Options->Settings Display tab in the Adobe
Audition product. This parameter allows for finer and coarser vertical (frequency) resolution at the cost of time-
domain uncertainty. Figures 60 and 61 depict the same wave files but with 256 band s ve rsus 2048 ba nds. One ca n
see better timing details in one graph compared with the other. The 256-band spectral display shown in Figure60
shows the fine timing details of the protocol, but with poor frequency resolution. The 2048-band spectral display
shown in Figure 61 allows more precise frequency measurements and signal separation, but at the cost of
obtaining a coarser time resolution.
