Flutter Index Concept

Frank A. Comerci

The subjective effect of flutter on audio program is reviewed, leading to the concept of “flutter index.” This information is analyzed to show the validity of using a single number, flutter index, as a measure of the relative quality degradation imparted to audio recordings by the flutter in the measured equipment. A proposed IRE Standard on Flutter Index Measurement, based on the above information, is then discussed.
