Abstract: A hydraulic supply device includes: a first oil pump configured to supply oil to a supply passage; a second oil pump driven together with the first oil pump or driven when the first oil pump is stopped; a first check valve provided in a first oil passage that allows a suction side of the second oil pump to communicate with an oil source, and configured to close the first oil passage when the second oil pump is stopped; a second check valve provided in a second oil passage that allows a discharge side of the second oil pump to communicate with the supply passage, and configured to close the second oil passage when the second oil pump is stopped; and a third oil passage into which the oil supplied to the supply passage flows, wherein the oil flowing into the third oil passage is used as an auxiliary pressure for operation of the second check valve when the second oil passage is closed.

Abstract: To realize virtual surround reproduction with small deterioration in the SN ratio of an entire reproduction system, in the case of adding together virtual surround signals and front-channel audio signals in an adder 1300, volume normalization is carried out in a volume normalizing section 1200 before the addition. In the case where the addition is not performed, the virtual surround signals and the front-channel audio signals are output independently of each other without being subjected to volume normalization in the volume normalizing section 1200.

Abstract: A audio processing apparatus capable of judging and correcting volume levels of audio data, with a level judgment thinning controller for thinning the frequency of the level judgments provided therein, can reduce a throughput and implement the level judgments and corrections in the case of multi-channel input audio data maintaining the original number of the channels thereof. The audio processing apparatus, with a plurality of level judging devices and level correcting devices further provided therein, can implement audio processings at optional settings in response to users' preferences. The present invention thereby provides the capability of judging and correcting levels of the multi-channel audio data while maintaining the original number of the channels thereof.

Abstract: An audio reproduction apparatus which reproduces an audio file including a header section and a data section, the header section containing position information for each unitary data, the data section containing a plurality of unitary data, said audio reproduction apparatus comprising: a reception unit operable to receive a special reproduction direction, the direction being given to repeat the partial reproduction and the partial skip of the data contained in the audio file in order; a calculation unit operable to calculate addresses of the plural pieces of data to be partially reproduced, by reading and interpreting the header of the audio file, when the special reproduction direction is received; a storage unit operable to store a special reproduction table in a memory, the special reproduction table containing the calculated addresses, the special reproduction table not containing addresses of data to be skipped; and a special reproduction unit operable to perform the special reproduction based on the add

Abstract: The clock supply device, which supplies a master clock to a stream processing apparatus that processes stream data frame by frame in synchronization with the master clock, includes a clock supply section, a processing amount computation section and a clock control section. The clock supply section supplies a clock having a predetermined frequency to the stream processing apparatus as the master clock. The processing amount computation section computes, at predetermined processing timing in a series of data processing performed for each frame by the stream processing apparatus, a data processing amount accumulated until the processing timing for each frame. The clock control section outputs a control signal according to a comparison result between the computed data processing amount and a predetermined threshold. The clock supply section switches the frequency of the clock supplied to the stream processing apparatus in response to the control signal.
