Inventor: IWAMOTO KAZUHIDE
IPC: G10L21/007
Filed: 2000-04-12
Abstract: A music apparatus, a method of processing an input signal
and a medium for use for it are provided receiving an input
signal composed of either of a voice signal and a tone signal
and for processing the input signal based on a timbre change
command signal to generate at least one channel of an output
signal. In the music apparatus, a reference pitch designation
section designates a reference pitch. An output signal
generation section receives the input signal, the timbre
change command signal and the reference pitch designated by
the reference pitch designation section for changing a timbre
of the input signal in accordance with the timbre change
command signal, and for changing a pitch of the input signal
above or below the reference pitch in accordance with the
timbre change command signal, thereby generating the output
signal having the changed timbre and the changed pitch. The
output signal generation section may change the pitch of the
input signal above the reference pitch when the timbre of the
input signal is changed by converting an original formant of
the input signal to a female formant, and may change the pitch
of the input signal below the reference pitch when the timbre
of the input signal is changed by converting an original
formant of the input signal to a male formant.

Abstract: The radio device (20) comprises a primary oscillator (23), with a phase-locked loop (22) excited by a reference signal (Sref delivered by the primary oscillator. There is a receiver-transmitter block (21, Rx, Tx) receiving a radio-frequency signal (SRF) delivered by the phase-locked loop. There is also a control (28-31, SW1-SW6) for powering component circuits in an order determi by functioning requirements. The phase-locked loop (PLL) (22) comprises a phase comparator (24), a low-pass filter (25), a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) (26), and a frequency divider (27) of rank N. The control means (28-31, SW1-SW6) ensure the following sequence of powering the component circuits: primary oscillator, VCO, phase comparator, divider, other elements of PLL, receiver or transmitter block (Rx Tx). The control means comprise a sequencer (28), a comparator (29), a timer (30) for setting the time interval between powering and other elements of PLL, a window comparator (31), and interrupters or switching elements (SW1-SW6). The comparator (26) surve the output of primary oscillator (23) and starts powering at least one component of PLL, that is VCO, when the primary oscillato delivers signal (Sref) greater than a threshold value (V1ref). The window comparator (31) detects the locking of PLL (22), and starts powering the receiver or transmitter block (Rx, Tx). The phase-locked loop (22) comprises a programmable frequency divide (27), so that the frequency of RF signal (SRF) can be modified. The radio device (20) is connected to a microprocessor (12) with input of data from a detector unit (11), and the microprocessor also provides an integer value of N for divider and a control si (CMF) to sequencer.

coil which fringe into the sample volume and hence less
noise and to provide an NMR coil resistant to frequency
shifts due to conductor burn out at operating currents.
These and other objects of the invention are met by
providing an RF coil (90) for magnetic resonance
spectroscopy or microscopy made of a thin film of conductive
material deposited on a planar substrate comprising a
capacitive element and an inductive element, wherein the
inductive element comprises three nested coplanar loops interrupted by gaps,

Abstract: An improved method for separating phytic acid and phytates from plant protein
involves contacting a clarified protein extract with an ion exchange resin, allowing phytic
acid and/or phytates to bind with the ion exchange resin whereby the protein extract is
depleted of phytic acid and/or phytates, and separating the protein extract which has been
depleted of phytic acid and/or phytates from the ion exchange resin. In accordance with
the method, only soluble proteins are contacted with the ion exchange resin. As a result,
problems associated with insoluble protein accumulating on or in the ion exchange resin
are eliminated, thereby providing an efficient, economical method of producing low-phytate
protein isolates on a commercial scale.
