Abstract: An analog vector processor and method for converting right and left mono and stereo audio input signals through a series of six amplifier blocks and two control blocks using a series of unique signal path connections. The six amplifier blocks are comprised of three dual-amplifiers, two spacial amplifiers, a four-amplifier integrated circuit that inverts and transposes the signal path thus putting the signals out-of-phase. The two control blocks are comprised of a new and unique signal mixer control block that selects a mono, stereo, spacial or binaural signal, and a level control block for dual tracking of the signals. The resultant output signals are of an altered sound field producing a binaural effect thus creating a three-dimensional sound experience. The input signals may be from any sound source or conducting medium.
Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for reducing relaxation noise in a conducting medium. The device is fabricated by affixing two magnets at like, repelling poles; wrapping said magnets with a coil of wire in an orientation orthogonal to the interface between the joined magnets and the like poles of the magnets to form a magnetic unit; connecting said coil to a motor means, an electrical power supply means and a switch means; attaching a spindle to said motor means. The spindle receives said conducting medium. The apparatus can be in a housing. The conducting medium is placed on said spindle. By activating the device, a modulated magnetic electromagnetic field is created simultaneous to the spinning of the conducting medium. The information recording medium rotates through the modulated electromagnetic field, thereby reducing the relaxation noise.
