VP-8
VP-8 is a pitch change algorithm for multichannel
applications.
Upto8channelscanbehandledsimultaneously.Using
intelligent splicing, VP8 has been designed specifically for
transposing multichannel, polyphonic material. However,
Doppler shifts on entire stems may also be performed
using its smooth pitch update capability.
With typical splice size settings, there will be a delay
around 1 frame through the algorithm (32-40ms). Additional
delay may be added for precise alignment with frame
boundaries or sync points.

phase coherency is maintained within both groups.

several channel assignment options which is the reason
why channels are labeled 1-8 instead of specific channel
names.

processing delay when transposed).
