 This function works differently than the VQT from `librosa` or `nnAudio` in that
-it does not use recursive downsampling. Instead, it uses a fixed set of filters,
-and a Hilbert transform to compute the analytic signal. It can then take the
-envelope and downsample. This results in a more accurate computation of the
-spectrogram. The tradeoff is that under certain conditions, it can be slower
-than the recursive downsampling approach, but usually not by much. The direct
-computation approach also results in code that is more flexible, easier to
-understand, and it has fewer constraints on the input parameters compared to
-`librosa` and `nnAudio`.
