i would write an answer to this question, but do not want to register for yet another SE site. can someone migrate this question back to DSP.SE?

https://softwarerecs.stackexchange.com/questions/36289/c-c-library-for-changing-pitch-without-altering-formant-frequencies

here is another one that should not have been migrated:

https://softwarerecs.stackexchange.com/questions/36284/are-there-any-good-implementation-of-lpc-dtw-in-c

Thanks for the feedback, Robert! I was probably too trigger-happy on the migrations, but software recommendations are generally considered off-topic and had been voted as such before I migrated them.

I'm open to adding a tag something like reference-request where there's a possibility of someone being able to recommend a software tool (or more than one): perhaps just software-request as a tag?

I can't migrate them back, unfortunately.

  • $\begingroup$ i think in both cases, the OP wanted some code. but it's code for a DSP alg. and in the LPC case, i have actually posted (here) such code. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ OK! I'll lay off the migrations going forward. Feel free to add that tag (or something similar) if you feel the questions can be answered within the scope of SP.SE. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ i dunno, Peter, i think some questions should be migrated. and sometimes i have answered DSP questions that got migrated over to some other list that i am signed up for. but i just didn't wanna sign up for an SE list that i had never even heard of before today. too many damn lists. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ My two cents: I think questions asking for references to known, good algorithms should be on-topic, even when also asking for pointers to reference implementations. Questions asking for a library, on the other hand, should be off-topic. The difference is the focus on the algorithms vs the focus on black-box solutions. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @MBaz ok! If you notice such a question, please tag it appropriately with a new tag. <kbd>reference-implementation</kbd>? $\endgroup$
