[sdiy] Multi-output comb filter?

[Corey K]

Option 2: write out the Z-transform for your comb filter. There will be one
pole per peak, and these will be spaced at equal angles around a circle in
the complex place. Add a zero to perfectly cancel the pole corresponding to
the peak you want removed. This will in turn correspond to an FIR filter
that you can run before or after your comb filter.

   Option 2: write out the Z-transform for your comb filter. There will be
   one pole per peak, and these will be spaced at equal angles around a
   circle in the complex place. Add a zero to perfectly cancel the pole
   corresponding to the peak you want removed. This will in turn
   correspond to an FIR filter that you can run before or after your comb
   filter.
