Chapter 6: Measurementscorrelated, minus one. For a spectrogram correlation, Length in Samplesequals the sum of the number of frames in the spectrograms that werecorrelated, minus one.Length in Samples (waveform)Number of digitized samples in the entire signal. The number of samples in asignal equals the signal’s duration times the sampling rate.Log Scale? (spectrogram, spectrum)Labelled “Amplitude” in measurement panel. Type of amplitude scale of theactive spectrogram or spectrum pane; displays “Quadratic” or “Logarithmic”.Normalized? (correlation)Displays “Yes” or “No” to indicate whether the plotted correlation values arenormalized.Number of Frames (spectrogram, spectrum)The number of STFT frames from which the active spectrogram or spectrumwas calculated. For a spectrogram, equivalent to the number of (possiblyoverlapping) “time slices,” which is determined by the signal length, framelength, and frame overlap. For a spectrum, Number of Frames is determinedby the duration of the selection from which the spectrum was made, the framelength, and the frame overlap.Overlap (spectrogram, spectrum)The percentage overlap between successive STFT frames in a spectrogram orspectrum.Pane (all)Displays “Waveform”, “Spectrogram”, “Spectrum”, or “Correlation”,depending on which measurement panel is currently displayed.Sample Size (waveform)The number of bits per sample in the signal when it was originally digitized orimported into Canary.Sampling Frequency (all)Number of digital samples per second with which the signal was digitized.Units: Hz.Start Time (spectrum)The time (measured from the beginning of the signal) at which the spectrumsource interval begins. Units: seconds.Canary 1.2 User’s Manual 91
