Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an audio processing device and a method therefor allowing a localization position of a sound image to be readily changed. A coefficient computation unit 23 adds or subtracts coefficients k_Ls, k_L, k_C, k_R, and k_Rs set for respective channels by a control unit 21 to or from audio signals Ls, L, C, R, and Rs from a delay unit 22, respectively. A dividing unit divides an audio signal C form the coefficient computation unit into two channel outputs, outputs a signal obtained by multiplying an audio signal C resulting from the division by delay_? to a combining unit of a channel L, and outputs a signal obtained by multiplying an audio signal C resulting from the division by delay_? to a combining unit of a channel R. The present disclosure is applicable to a downmixer that downmixes audio signals from two or more channels to two channels.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a fail analysis system performs mesh division of a physical fail bit map and stores fail bit map image data of a part bit fail region in a first image data storage region while classifying the fail bit map image data in each contraction ratio, in each chip, and in each layer. The fail analysis system also stores the fail bit map image data in a second image data storage region while classifying the fail bit map image data in each kind of a fail mode, in each contraction ratio, in each chip, and in each layer. Further, based on an instruction of a display format and/or a display region from a user, the fail analysis system extracts the pieces of fail bit map image data from the first image data storage region or second image data storage region to combine the pieces of fail bit map image data, and displays the combined fail bit map image data on a display unit.

A stocker accommodates a plurality of recorded medium carriers each holding a recorded medium. A first transport unit transports a recorded medium carrier between the outside of an apparatus housing and the stocker. A second transport unit transports a recorded medium between the stocker and a reproduction unit. The stocker is moved up and down in order to align the position of the recorded medium carrier with the first or second transport unit. While a recorded medium carrier is transported from the outside of the housing to the stocker, light emitting and receiving elements detect a presence/absence of a recorded medium. A control unit stores information of a presence/absence of a recorded medium at each stage of the stocker, and displays the contents of the information on a display unit.
