An audio signal processor (10, 12, 14) is disclosed for correcting harmonic and phase inaccuracies caused by the transduction, recording and playback of live audio signals. Operational amplifiers with fast slew rates and large bandwiths are used to implement a simple but effective circuit that can be reduced to a single chip. Signal phase is continuously and automatically shifted as a logarithmic function of frequency to compensate for differences in propagation velocities, thereby reducing the spatial smear that is inherent in conventional loudspeaker designs. Harmonic frequencies present during a live performance are regenerated by the signal processor to restore realism to the reproduced audio signal.
