DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANIPULATING AN AUDIO SIGNAL HAVING A TRANSIENT EVENT

摘要

A signal manipulator for manipulating an audio signal having a transient event may comprise a transient remover (100), a signal processor (110) and a signal inserter (120) for inserting a time portion in a processed audio signal at a signal location where the transient event was removed before processing by said transient remover, so that a manipulated audio signal comprises a transient event not influenced by the processing, whereby the vertical coherence of the transient event is maintained instead of any processing performed in the signal processor (110), which would destroy the vertical coherence of a transient.
