IPC: G10L21/007
Filed: 2002-10-31
Abstract: A voice intensifier capable of reducing abrupt
changes in the amplification factor between frames and
realizing excellent sound quality with less noise feeling by
dividing input voices into the sound source characteristic
and the vocal tract characteristic, so as to individually
intensify the sound source characteristic and the vocal
tract characteristic and then synthesize them before being
output. The voice intensifier comprises a signal separation
unit for separating the input sound signal into the sound
source characteristic and the vocal tract characteristic, a
characteristic extraction unit for extracting characteristic
information from the vocal tract characteristic, a
corrective vocal tract characteristic calculation unit for
obtaining vocal tract characteristic correction information
from the vocal tract characteristic and the characteristic
information, a vocal tract characteristic correction unit
for correcting the vocal tract characteristic by using the
vocal tract characteristic correction information, and a
signal synthesizing means for synthesizing the corrective
vocal tract characteristic from the vocal tract
characteristic correction unit and the sound source
characteristic, so that the sound synthesized by the signal
synthesizing means is output.

Abstract: Arrangements are made such that a plurality of operators,
such as faders (Fig. 2; 201-1 - 201-n), can be set to opposite
operational directions. When any one of the operators has been
operated in a particular direction, a control value of each of the
other operator, set to the same operational direction as the operated
operator, is controlled in the same direction as the particular
operated direction, while a control value of each of the other
operators, set to the opposite operational direction from the
operated operator, is controlled in the opposite direction from the
particular operated direction. Where control values of a plurality
of channels are to be controlled via a collective control controller,
each of the channels is set to a forward or inverse operational
direction. Thus, even faders that are to be operated in opposite
directions can be appropriately operated collectively as a group.
