Numerical Simulation of a Tube-Delay Audio Effect

A virtual tube delay effect based on the real-time simulation of acoustic wave propagation in a garden hose is presented. The thesis describes the acoustic measurements conducted and the analysis of the sound propagation in long narrow tubes. \nDelay lines and digital filters were designed to simulate the propagation delay, losses, and reflections from the end of the tube. A stereo delay effect plugin in PURE DATA has been also implemented
