data doubles after bandpass #50

Closed czawora closed 6 years ago

czawora commented 6 years ago

Running the bandpass process produces an output file twice the size of input file. Why does this happen and is there a way to produce an identically sized output file?

The reason is that the filtered data is float32 (4 bytes per number). Your input data was probable int16 (2 bytes per entry). Not sure there is a good way around that.
