[edit] Instructions

Obtain the frequency analysis from Audacity, set the maximum number of windows, and use a Hamming window. The following script was used to generate the image:

set terminal png transparent font "/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-bitstream-vera/Vera.ttf" size 800,600 enhanced
set output "pink_noise_spectrum.png"

# this seems to fix the trailers on the TTF font for the x-label
set bmargin 4

# enable grid
set grid
set grid mxtics

# set up x-axis
set logscale x 10
set xrange [100:22000]
set xlabel "Frequency (Hz)"
set xtics border nomirror

# set up y-axis
set yrange [-40:0]
set ylabel "Intensity (dB)"
set ytics border nomirror

# again to deal with bad bboxes on the TTF...
set key height 1 box

# plot the output from Audacity
plot "pink_noise.txt" title "Pink Noise" with filledcurves x1 3
