摘要： In a system and method for maintaining the spatial stability of a sound field a balance gain may be calculated for two or more microphone signals. The balance gain may be associated with a spatial image in the sound field. Signal values may be calculated for each of the microphone. The signal values may be signal estimates or signal gains calculated to improve a characteristic of the microphone signals. The differences between the signal values associated with each microphone signal may be limited although some difference between signal values may be allowable. One or more microphone signals are adjusted responsive to the two or more balance gains and the signal gains to maintain the spatial stability of the sound field. The adjustments of one or more microphone signals may include mixing of two or more microphone. The signal gains are applied to the two or more microphone signals.

摘要： An augmented-reality audio system generates information regarding the acoustic environment by sampling audio signals. Using a Gaussian mixture model or other technique, the system identifies the location of one or more audio sources, with each source contributing an audio component to the sampled audio signals. The system determines a reverberation time for the acoustic environment using the audio components. In determining the reverberation time, the system may discard audio components from sources that are determined to be in motion, such as components with an angular velocity above a threshold or components having a Doppler shift above a threshold. The system may also discard audio components from sources having an inter-channel coherence above a threshold. In at least one embodiment, the system renders sounds using the reverberation time at virtual locations that are separated from the locations of the audio sources.

摘要： The present invention provides a tablet woofer, including: a vibration diaphragm, at least four mutually independent driving units, and a housing for accommodating and securing the vibration diaphragm and the driving unit. The driving unit includes independent voice coil units and magnetic circuit units, the voice coil units being attached and fixed to the vibration diaphragm. The woofer further includes a FPCB communicating with an internal circuit and an external circuit, and the FPCB is disposed at two sides of the housing, the part of the FPCB disposed on the side of the housing close to the voice coil units being electrically connected to the voice coil units, the part of the FPCB disposed on the side of the housing far away from the voice coil units being electrically connected to the external circuit. The woofer can solve the problems of thick and heavy voice coils and magnet performance surplus.

摘要： Processor-implemented methods and systems for visually-assisted mixing of audio using a spectral analyzer are disclosed. The system calculates and displays a spectral view for each track in an arrangement in a multi-track view. A user can then request modification of the spectral view. In response to this request for modification, the system automatically adjusts associated mixing parameters for the modified track so that the spectral output of the track substantially matches the user-requested modified spectral view. This allows a user to visually mix an arrangement by imputing a desired spectral result and having the program make the changes necessary to achieve it.
