Patent CA-2648965-A1 (CA)
Title: Interface(s) (etc.) to correct musician timing-distortions and other losses arising form using headphones and close microphone placements (etc.)
Inventor: DAVIS CHRISTOPHER P
IPC: H04R5/04
Filed: 2009-01-05
Abstract: This invention contributes towards restoring the natural "live feel" lost to headphone monitoring and close microphone (and/or D.I.) techniques frequently used when musician(s) record (or overdub) in the studio. Techniques that effectively remove or reduce distances (displacements) between musician(s), and musician(s) and their amplifier/speaker systems, and timing reference (e.g. drummer) and, thus, lead to subtle timing-errors heard as unnatural musical tensions and reduced separation (distinction) between instruments on playback;    techniques that, also, eliminate expected room acoustics. This R3 (Restore Room Relationships) invention is not a 'sound effects' processor. In fact, the 'R3 mode' allows a musician's 'sound effects' to sound just like they do listening via their instrument amps speaker system, and so preserves the interactive 'vibe' in real-time and playback. An important feature is that the 'R3 mode' has no direct (i.e. no zero latency) signal-path(s). Another important feature is the intuitive ease with which musicians can restore complex interactive musical relationships vis-à-vis simply "tune back the vibe" when using 'R3 mode' headphones.  This invention, also, eliminates the uncomfortable 'boxed in' feeling musicians experience when using the headphone-jack on their amplifier to practice.  The creative musical satisfaction derived by restoring displacements and expected room acoustics when using the 'R3 mode' is nothing short of inspirational, in the opinion of the musician inventor Chris Davis; who sums up the R3 mode experience as:   "When you feel comfortable with your sound you just create better music!"
