Reverberation effect imparting system

摘要

A reverberation effect imparting system includes plural comb filters, each of which has a signal delay line and a feedback loop for filtering a delayed output signal from the delay line and feeding the filtered signal back to the input side with a variable loop gain. The device further includes a junction section which receives the respective output signals from the delay lines of the plural comb filters. The junction section controls the received signals with respective variable scattering coefficients and sums up the thus-controlled signals, so as to introduce the summed signal into the feedback loop of each of the comb filters. In this manner, reverberation control according to the waveguide theory is performed by the junction section, while the conventional-type reverberation control is performed by the comb filters. Thus, reverberation can be controlled through a combination of the two controls.
