Abstract:
An audio equalizer circuit for controlling and modifying an audio signal includes a signal divider positioned to receive an audio signal from an audio source. The divided audio signal is then passed through multiple bandpass filters situated in parallel with one another. One or more of the bandpass filters includes a compressor in order to limit the dynamic range of the audio source. After the compressor, the audio circuit may include two summation circuits with the second compressor interposed between the two.

Claim (Index 1):
An audio equalizer circuit for controlling and modifying an audio signal, the circuit comprising:\n an audio signal input; a signal divider positioned to receive an audio signal from the audio signal input; a first bandpass fitter electrically coupled to the signal divider to receive at least a portion of the signals the first bandpass filter configured to pass a centerline band of a first frequency; a second bandpass filter electrically coupled to the signal divider to receive at least a portion of the signal, the second bandpass filter in parallel with the first bandpass filter, the second bandpass filter configured to pass a centerline band of a second frequency where the second frequency is different than the first frequency; a compressor controllably coupled to the first bandpass filter for modifying a characteristic of the portion of the signal passing through the first bandpass filter, wherein the compressor is not controllably coupled to the second bandpass filter; and a summation circuit coupled to the first bandpass filter and the second bandpass filter to receive and combine the portions of the signal from the first bandpass filter and the second bandpass filter.
