CIRCUIT ARRANGEMENT FOR CORRECTING FREQUENCY RESPONSE IN ACCORDANCE WITH FREQUENCY RESPONSE OF A SOUND FIELD

摘要

In a circuit arrangement for automatically correcting frequency response so as to set a desired frequency response in view of a frequency response of a sound field, a frequency response control circuit is improved such that precise level control at a number of bands is effected with a simple structure. A microcomputer is used to determine the difference between a desired frequency response curve and a frequency response curve obtained by measuring the sound pressure level in a sound field, to which pink noise or the like is emitted through the frequency response control circuit, so as to produce a control signal used in the frequency response control circuit to give a desired frequency response to an audio signal. The frequency response control circuit comprises an amplifier, a plurality of resonance circuits corresponding to the bands, a plurality of variable resistor circuits each including a parallel circuit of a plurality of series circuits of a resistor and an analog switch; and an interface circuit responsive to serial data of the control signal from the microcomputer for controlling the analog switches.
