Ask HN: Does this algorithm for increasing audio quality exist?
I've been having this weird thought lately about how to increase the 'definition' of audio using convolutions. The idea is as follows

1. Convolve a rectangular function of a certain width against the audio

2. The local maxima's of the convolved function show where there is the highest average amplitude, so increase the amplitude of those regions a bit

3. Repeat with smaller rectangular functions to capture finer details

Does this already exist, and if it doesn't, does this idea even work
