Uh, I was hoping for an official recommendation from the spec, not an
intuited circuit that works. I didn't know of any officially
recommended one, but the way you were talking about it, I thought you
did. Either from the original only sort-of-standard RIAA curve or the
eventual IEC specced version. I don't need a schematic of a simple RC
bandpass, thanks :-)

Uh, those are linear phase and acausal. Also beware of JAMin's using
the FFT for non-time-invariant effects, it will modulate the audio
that passes through. Not a problem for FFT, huge problem for things
like compressors.
