+ * The coefficients correspond to the filter impulse response sampled

+ * fixed-point numbers.
+ *
+ * The filter is an ideal low-pass (sinc function), multiplied by a 8
+ * time units long Blackman window. The filter cut-off frequency is
+ * set at 0.75 of the Nyquist frequency (for instance, at 48kHz, the
+ * cut-off will be at 18kHz, beyond audible frequencies).
