Abstract:
1. A system for processing a signal, comprising: an analog to digital converter receiving said signal; and a signal reproduction device processing said received signal in dependence upon a mode of operation of said system representing a speed at which said received signal is to be reproduced by said system, wherein said received signal is speed converted and then stored in a memory of said system when said system is in a first mode of operation, and wherein said received signal is stored in said memory of said system without being speed converted when said system is in a second mode of operation; wherein reproduction of said received signal is enabled in said first mode of operation by reading said received speed converted signal out of said memory, and enabling output of said received speed converted signal, and wherein reproduction of said received signal is enabled in said second mode of operation by reading said received signal out of said memory, speed converting said received signal, and enabling output of said received speed converted signal, thereby providing a reproduced received signal at a speed less than an input speed corresponding to said received signal.
