Abstract: A system for receiving digital audio data may include a diversity-receiving unit. The diversity-receiving unit may include at least two antennas and at least one receiving channel, which can be switched from one antenna to another antenna. To reduce audible disturbances in the receiving channel, a dropout concealment may be carried out when disturbances in the received audio signal occur. The dropout concealment may use intact audio signal parts before the disturbance and/or after the disturbance to synthesize the concealment signal. The receiving channel may be switched to another antenna as a function of whether the dropout concealment is activated.

Abstract: A reproducing apparatus for information signals recorded on a record carrier in the form of a tape comprises two rotatable reproducing heads for alternately reproducing the information signals and a position encoder which supplies position pulses for determining the rotary position of the reproducing heads. A common pre-amplifier is connected to the reproducing heads, which amplifier is followed by compensation circuits associated with the two reproducing heads for signal correction, the output signal supplied by the compensation circuit associated with the reproducing head which instantaneously co-operates with the record carrier being applied to a signal processing circuit during the scanning period of the relevant reproducing head depending on the position pulses.
