Hi Peter,

Please check the MATH FFT function. For CMM2 we had to fix it, and for MMB4W we seem to run into a similar issue (although not identical).

When I take the FFT magnitude from a sinesquare windowed sine wave, and display it in linear scale, it should look like this (CMM2 fft calculation from below program):



However, the MMB4W math function shows many spurious peaks. Below graph shows the sinesquare windowed sine signal (top), as well as the fft (lower graph)




 
I use this code to check it (the program can change the windowing function with "w", and change the number of sinewaves for fft with "a" and "z", and save the graph to disk with "s").

'check fft magnitude function

n=1023 'samples
cy=10  'cycles
sq=0   'sq=1 = square wave. sq=0 = sine wave

dim a!(n),fm!(n)
w=0  'window type, 0=none

do
 cls

 'draw 2 frames using mm.hres mm.vres
 box 50,0,(mm.hres-51),mm.vres/2-2
 box 50,mm.vres/2,mm.hres-51,mm.vres-1

 'prepare input signal
 sinfill
 if k$="w" then w=(w+1) mod 4
 if w then window
 
 'plot input signal
 plot_in

 'do fft
 math fft magnitude a!(),fm!()

 'convert to logaritm
 'lin2log

 'plot fft  
 plot_fft

 'keyboard commands
 do
   k$=inkey$
 loop until k$<>""
 if k$="a" then cy=cy+1
 if k$="z" then cy=cy-1:cy=max(cy,2)
 if k$="s" then save image "fft",0,0,800,600
loop until k$="q"

end
