摘要:
A sound quality control system according to the present invention precisely and swiftly realizes a sound quality that is desired by a listener, by controlling sound quality based on quantitative counter model between the psychological characteristic and the physical characteristic of a sound reproduction apparatus. A quantitative counter model between the physical characteristic of a sound reproduction apparatus and a plurality of the psychological quantities upon hearing a sound therefrom is constituted for each respective psychological quantity. Based on the quantitative counter model, a desired sound quality is input to a compensation characteristics extractor, and a compensation characteristic that realizes the desired sound quality is extracted. The compensation characteristic is sent to a signal processor; and an audio signal input is processed according to the compensation characteristic, and amplified to be reproduced by a loudspeaker.
摘要:
A sound field controller for generating apparent sound sources by adjusting the amplitude and delay time of a sound signal so that the sound will be perceived by plural listeners as sound coming from a location separated from the specific location of the front speakers, and for additionally controlling the effect of the apparent sound sources by evaluating the attributes of the source sound signal. The controller includes FIR filters for generating a left sound pattern signal, FIR filters for generating a right sound pattern signal, a first delay circuit for delaying the left and right sound pattern signals by a first predetermined time and applying the delayed left and right sound pattern signals to the left and right speakers, respectively, to introduce an apparent sound source located left rear of a center listener; and a second delay circuit for delaying the left and right sound pattern signals by a second predetermined time and applying the delayed left and right sound pattern signals to the right and left speakers, respectively, to introduce an apparent sound source located right rear of a center listener.
摘要:
Control codes for controlling processing of an audio signal by a sound field variation circuit to produce desired sound fields are recorded on a monaural track of a video tape concurrent with recording of video and audio signals, and can thereby be subsequently played back for producing sound fields which are respectively synchronized with video images.
