Excuse me for asking so stupid, maybe the answer is writen in my books..... but I don´t want to spend so much time for finding the answer ;-)
the question belongs to the integrated filters in cooleditpro.... (has this anything to do with FIR or IIR - filters.....)
thanks, wssi

Your topic doesn't exactly match your thread contents. I'll answer the question in the topic title:
Cool edit pro did their FFT transforms (filters/noise reduction) correctly. They do not create phase errors.
However, their quick eq option may not. In fact, I found it to be slower than their FFT stuff with 8kpoint FFT conversions.
I'm also not sure about their sample rate conversion, I havn't analysed it's performance.
Now, it seems you need to read up on FFT/FIR/IIR, here is a good link:

Extra:
If you use win2k/winxp, look for a copy of Cooledit96. A bug within it makes the real-time FFT analysis & vu meter work really smooth and good. Check out playback with a 1K plot. In win95/win98, it would run at the same speed as the newer cooledits, this is sad and annoying since I need to go to CE96 when I analyse audio to check for cheap thing like compression artifacts, 15Khz leakage usually recieved by microphones or cheap cabling picking up the yoke EM signal from monitors, or 50/60Hz leakage. The newer cooledits really suck here.
Does anyone know how to get the new cooledit's spectrum analysis to run like cooledit96's?

Yes, they can. Digital filters can be separated into two categories: "linear phase" and "nonlinear phase".
As their name implies, linear phase filters have a phase response that is a straight line on a linear/linear phase vs. frequency graph. These filters have a constant group delay across all frequencies. (The group delay is basically the slope of the phase response.)
However, it is entirely possible to construct a nonlinear phase digital filter, so named because the phase graph is not a straight line. In this case the group delay is not constant across all frequencies.
FIR filters can be both linear phase and nonlinear phase. Linear phase FIR filters have a symmetrical impulse response. IIR filters are, except in certain degenerate cases, nonlinear phase.

ok, thank you for this, now it´s a little bit clearer for me, but at this time I think I´ve drunk to much to think about it deeper... but it´s a definitive answer to that what I´am looking for...[well, if that sound confusing to you -> its the easter weekend.... so forgive me....;-)]
cheers!
