Audio-ISSUE-71 (EqualPowerNormalization): Equal-power normalization is not defined [Web Audio API] http://www.w3.org/2011/audio/track/issues/71 Raised by: Philip Jägenstedt On product: Web Audio API The ConvolverNode.normalize attribute "Controls whether the impulse response from the buffer will be scaled by an equal-power normalization when the buffer atttribute is set." However, equal-power normalization is not defined anywhere.
Detail was added to section 4.16.1 .normalize attribute description awhile ago, the exact algorithm is in calculateNormalizationScale()
I can confirm that it's now defined in https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/audio/raw-file/tip/webaudio/specification.html#ConvolverNode, although I haven't reviewed the actual algorithm.

Let us close this issue then. Feel free to open specific issues related to the algorithm when you review it.
