PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To give a distinct time delay for every auxiliary speaker to a speaker system which consists of a main speaker and many auxiliary speakers (under balcony speaker, etc.) when there are few output channels of a digital mixer. SOLUTION: The sound signal of each output channel of the digital mixer is matched with each output port through an output patch part 126. The output channel of one can be matched with a plurality of output ports. With configurations as shown, since the port delay parts 127-1 to 127-24, 129-1 to 129-16 are formed for every output port in the poststage of the output patch part 126, the distinct time delay can be established to many every output ports (speakers) not based on the number of the output channels.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent noise, such as the cough of a performer, from coming out of a monitor speaker toward seats when outputting a post-fade sound signal from a certain input channel of a mixer to an output channel for a main speaker, and outputting a pre-fade sound signal to the output channel of a monitor speaker for performers on a stage. SOLUTION: A sending level to the output channel to be prefaded is changed according to a fader gain FL. The minimum value is set to be a threshold TL in a range used for finely adjusting volume in a range where the fader gain FL can be set. In the case of FL≤TL, a sending level ASL is lowered according to the fader gain FL. In the case of FL>TL, the sending level ASL is to be a fixed value (VSL). COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a digital mixer unit controlling the signal processing characteristic of an input channel signal processing means by reading the history of a selected channel with a simple operation, and treating the readout channel as edition channel. SOLUTION: A digital mixer selects channels assigned to channel strips 3 1 -3 24 from among a plurality of channels belonging to a layer selected by layer selection switches 4a-4e by means of selection switches 3b 1 -3b 24 . The selected channels are retained in a history table. Whenever a history readout switch 6 is depressed, the channel history is read out. The readout channel is treated as edition channel. In a set state of a layer cooperation mode, the digital mixer selects the layer to which the readout channel belongs, and assigns each channel included in the layer to each channel strip 3 1 -3 24 .

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for forming and storing a system ID relating to a system serial afterward in a musical device in which the system ID is not stored. SOLUTION: The system ID related to the system serial is formed by subjecting the system serial inputted by a user to a specified operation to the musical device to which the system serial is given and the system ID is written to the prescribed address of a nonvolatile memory means to prohibit illicit rewriting with which the musical device is provided. Also, the system ID grant program of the procedure described above is included into firmware for upgrading and the system ID is granted to the musical device which does not possess the system ID thus far by starting up the system ID grant program after the upgrading is executed. The prescribed intrinsic information is used in addition to the system serial for formation of the system ID and it is so assured that the another system ID is formed for the another musical device even of the same system serial.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a digital mixer whereby from which input ch sound is received by the bus used for e.g., a monitoring purpose can be confirmed and set with a simple operation because from which input ch a playing sound is transmitted to a bus (AUX bus or the like) for mixing the monitor sound of each player has only to be confirmed and set on an exclusive menu for each bus and the operation for the confirmation and setting is much complicated. SOLUTION: A display unit of a ch ON switch (ordinarily displaying an ON / OFF state of a concerned ch) displays an ON / OFF state of signal transmission from an input changeover switch corresponding to the ch ON switch to the AUX bus while an AUX bus selector switch is kept operated for a prescribed time. When the ch ON switch is operated in this state, the ON / OFF state of the signal transmission from the input changeover switch corresponding to the ch ON switch to the AUX bus can be switched.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a digital mixing system for outputting signals of a plurality of input channels to a plurality of MIX buses capable of efficiently setting a mixing state of signals of multi-systems. SOLUTION: Keys 202, 204 select an operating mode of a bus operating unit 200. A plurality of rotary encoders 218 in a mix send mode act like operating units for adjusting a signal gain of each input channel supplied to a designated MIX bus. Further, each encoder 218 in a mix master mode acts like an operating unit for adjusting an output gain of each MIX bus. Moreover, a SEL key 222 in the mix master mode acts like a key for designating a channel wherein detail setting such as sound quality are performed. In addition, when a CUE key 224 is operated in the mix mater mode and reaches an ON state, the SEL key 222 is set to an On state interlockingly. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To monitor a surround signal. SOLUTION: In setting a surround signal inputted to a card 44 for monitoring, an output patch 54 patches the surround signal of a multi-channel obtained from a card 44 on an analog output unit 55. Sound monitor output obtained from the analog output unit 55 is outputted from a surround speaker installed in a control room for monitoring the surround signal.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To attain reproduction suitable for respective images to image information, where the moving images and the still images coexist by effectively utilizing a storage area of an image storage means. SOLUTION: Still image information is arranged in units of one image pattern in an interval between dynamic image information to store in an image storage means 24. In the case of reproduction, the image information consisting of the moving image information and the still image information stored in the image storage means 24 is reproduced continuously. Thus, the moving image information and the still image information are identified, and they are reproduced at separate reproduction speeds, respectively set by reproduction speed setting means 25, 26.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To assign the items of parameters being operated by each operator to a plurality of operators, by a simple operation with a high degree of freedom.SOLUTION: Specification of one of a plurality of operators is accepted, and specification of a plurality of items for the parameters is accepted. With reference to an operator for which the specification is accepted, a plurality of operators to which the items of parameters are assigned is determined (S32). Any one of the plurality of items for which the specification is accepted is then assigned to each of the plurality of operators thus determined (S35). Each of the plurality of operators is made to function as an operator for operating the set value of an item assigned to that operator.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an acoustic signal processor capable of remaining sound volume without performing complete muting when muting is performed.SOLUTION: When a mute group 1 is chosen by a choosing button 3a, channels (chs) belonging to the mute group 1 are highlight-displayed in a channel display field 3. When the SEL switch of the ch is pressed, the ch is assigned to the mute group 1. When a muting button 4b is operated, an operated mute group is turned-on for muting. Sound volume in turning-on for muting is set for each mute group as a desired value by operating a button 4a.
