      @Mighty23 tried the snippet, I don't see any artefacts here, even with the same settings

        @DanH Thank you very much for your response. I'd like to ask if you've used a samplerate different from 48000 and a buffer size of 480.

          Sub frequency artifacts (most likely "pre-ringing") can be a result of linear phase filtering.

            @Dan-Korneff What should I try to prevent or correct this?

              use a high pass filter set at 20Hz

                @Dan-Korneff Isn't pre-ringing a result of audio playing backwards?

                  @Lindon Do you mean a low pass filter, as in preventing aliasing?

                    @clevername27 Not that I know of. Playing the audio backwards is actually a possible solution to the issue.
                    In general, all EQ creates ringing. It usually occurs AFTER the signal, so it's masked most of the time. Linear phase filters create a ripple in the audio at the crossover points (aka: ringing) Due to the latency caused by linear phase filters, some of this ringing occurs before the transient and is now audible.

                      no - several types of distortion approaches produce harmonics - in fact in a lot of cases this is what you want - but these can appear above your source freq. and below it, looking at the op's image there seems to be a low freq harmonic being added at around 20Hz, its a pretty simple High-pass filter to remove this.

                        Does this undesirable occurrence associated with distortion have a specific term?
