`fluid.normalize~` tab "comparing scalers" seems to refer to a specific audio sample #298

Closed rconstanzo closed 2 years ago

rconstanzo commented 2 years ago

This tab gives you an option of audio files to load, but then the grey text underneath each seems to talk about a file in specific (or at least makes assumption on how that data behaves with each plot).

If that's the case, it should load the intended soundfile by default, or at least, it should change the wording to be more generic "Standardize produces a similar shape to the robust scaler. In some cases the outliers can still pull the entire shape....."

Could also benefit from having a significantly smaller pointsizescale for all of them.

Lastly, a speedlim wouldn't hurt on the zoom outlet, as it really bogs my computer down trying to scroll with a longer audio file loaded.

I see, it does default load. I've just gotten in the habit of manually loading files as in many helpfiles this interface typically does not load a file.

Maybe just have the file baked into a buffer directly since this is demonstrating the idea with this specific audio file. So just buffer~ help.scalercomparison.src.really.long.name Olencki-TenTromboneLongTones-M.wav.

Agree with this so I've implemented it on dev
