Automatic mixer apparatus

摘要

An automatic mixer apparatus is described which comprises a plurality of channels each including a level detecting circuit, a comparator and a voltage control amplifier, a gain control circuit for controlling the gains of the voltage control amplifiers of the respective channels and a mixer circuit for mixing signals from the voltage control amplifiers. The level detecting circuit detects a level of an aural signal received at the corresponding channel and the comparator operates to compare the detected level from the detecting circuit and a reference level. When the detected level is higher than the reference level, the comparator outputs a comparison signal to the corresponding voltage control amplifier to turn on. The gain control circuit receives the comparison signals from the whole comparators and outputs a gain control signal to the respective voltage amplifiers whereby the gains thereof are controlled in accordance with the number of the comparison signals received at the gain control circuit.
