Many digital audio effects rely on transformations performed in the Fourier-transformed (frequency) domain. However, other transforms and domains exist and could be exploited. We propose to use the Mellin transform for a class of sound transformations. We present a fast implementation of the Mellin transform (more precisely a Fast Scale Transform), and we provide some examples on how it could be used in digital audio effects.
