Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention
[0008] 《Reference Technology》 Before explaining the earphone monitor system according to the embodiments of the present disclosure, an earphone monitor system as reference technology devised by the applicant will be explained based on FIGS. 1 to 5.
[0009] FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a mixer console of an earphone monitor system according to the reference technology, FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a transmitter etc. of the earphone monitor system according to the reference technology, FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a receiver etc. of the earphone monitor system according to the reference technology, FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing a composite signal generation unit according to the reference technology, and FIG. 5 is a block diagram showing demodulation of a composite signal according to the reference technology.
[0010] The earphone monitor system according to the reference technology of FIGS. 1 to 5 includes a mixer console 10 provided with a mixer unit 20, a transmitter 300 for earphone monitors provided with a composite signal generation unit 310 and an FM modulation transmitter unit 320, FM reception demodulation units 610-1, 610-2, ~610-N and stereo amplification units 620-1, 620-2, ~620-N respectively provided in earphone monitors receivers 600-1, 600-2, ~600-N (N is an integer), and earphones (L / R) 700-1, 700-2, ~700-N connected to the earphone monitors receivers 600-1, 610-2, ~600-N.
[0011] As shown in FIG. 1, the mixing console 10 is provided with N (N is an integer) input terminals input1 to input terminal inputN and N output terminals AUX-out1 to output terminal AUX-outN. Performance signals of performers 1 to N are input to the N input terminals input1 to input terminal inputN. The performance signals of performers 1 to N input to the mixing console 10 are respectively captured as signals of channel 1 (ch1) to signals of channel N (chN). Note that the signals of channel 1 (ch1) to signals of channel N (chN) are connected to the N output terminals AUX-out1 to output terminal AUX-outN of the mixing console 10. The mixer section 20 of the mixing console 10 captures the signals of channel 1 (ch1) to signals of channel N (chN) which are the performance signals of performers 1 to N. The mixer section 20 captures the signals of channel 1 (ch1) to signals of channel N (chN), and mixing is performed by the sound engineer (PA: Public Address), and volume, L / R position setting, L / R volume adjustment after mixing, etc. of each channel (ch1 to chN) signal are performed. The signals after mixing by the mixer section 20 are output from output terminals AUX-L and output terminal AUX-R as monitor outputs, and are also output from output terminals OUT-L and output terminal OUT-R as venue outputs.
[0012] As shown in FIG. 2, the transmitter 300 for earphone monitors includes a composite signal generation section 310 and an FM modulation transmission section 320. The L signal and R signal which are the performance signals mixed and adjusted by the mixer section 20 are input to the L terminal and R terminal of the composite signal generation section 310 of the transmitter 300 via the output terminals AUX-L and output terminal AUX-R. The composite signal generation section 310 generates a composite signal vcomp based on the L signal and R signal input from the mixer section 20.
[0013] FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing a pilot tone type composite signal generation unit according to the prior art. As shown in FIG. 4, the composite signal generation unit 310 includes an adder 311, a subtractor 312, a multiplier 313, an adder 314, an oscillator 315, and a 1 / 2 frequency divider 316. In FIG. 4, assuming that the L signal and the R signal input from the mixer unit 20 are vL and vR, the adder 311 outputs vL + vR, and the subtractor 312 outputs vL - vR. The multiplier 313 multiplies vL - vR output from the subtractor 312 by sin(ωst) output from the oscillator 315 and outputs (vL - vR)·sin(ωst). Note that the carrier frequency fs = ωs / 2π. The adder 314 adds the output of the adder 311, the output of the multiplier 313, and Ap·sin(ωs / 2)t which is the output of the 1 / 2 frequency divider 316, and outputs the composite signal vcomp. Note that Ap·sin(ωs / 2)t is a pilot signal, and Ap is the amplitude of the pilot signal. That is, vcomp = vL + vR + (vL - vR)·sin(ωst) + Ap·sin(ωs / 2)t. Note that since the configuration and operation of the composite signal generation unit are known techniques, detailed description thereof is omitted.
[0014] The composite signal vcomp generated by the composite signal generation unit 310 is FM - modulated by the FM modulation transmission unit 320 and transmitted as a radio wave of frequency f1 via the antenna. Note that since the configuration and operation of the FM modulation transmission unit are known techniques, detailed description thereof is omitted.
[0015] As shown in FIG. 3, the receivers 600 - 1, 600 - 2, ~ 600 - N for earphone monitors each include an FM reception demodulation unit 610 - 1, 600 - 2, ~ 610 - N and a stereo amplification unit 620 - 1, 620 - 2, ~ 620 - N. The radio wave of frequency f1 transmitted from the transmitter 300 for the earphone monitor is received by the antennas 630-1 to 630-N of the receivers 600-1 to 600-N for the earphone monitor, FM demodulated by the FM reception demodulation units 610-1 to 610-N, and the composite signal vcomp is extracted, and this composite signal vcomp is demodulated into a stereo signal.
[0016] Figure 5 is a block diagram showing the demodulation of a composite signal of a matrix system according to the prior art. The block diagram of Figure 5 includes a low-pass filter 501, an adder 502, an oscillator 503, a band-pass filter 504, a detection circuit 505, an adder 506, and a subtractor 507. In Figure 5, the composite signal vcomp can obtain vL + vR by removing components of a predetermined frequency or higher by the low-pass filter 501. Also, by adding the carrier signal 3sinωst to the composite signal vcomp by the oscillator 503 and the adder 502 and applying it to the band-pass filter 504 that passes a predetermined frequency band, an AM modulated wave can be obtained. Then, by extracting the envelope of the waveform of this AM modulated wave by the detection circuit 505, vL - vR can be obtained. And by calculating the sum and difference of vL + vR and vL - vR by the adder 506 and the subtractor 507, 2vL and 2vR can be obtained. Note that since the operation of demodulating the composite signal is a known technique, a detailed description is omitted.
[0017] The stereo signals demodulated by the FM reception demodulation units 610-1 to 610-N are amplified by the stereo amplification units 620-1 to 620-N and output to the earphones (L / R) 700-1 to the earphones (L / R) 700-N of the performers 1 to N.
[0018] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the L signal and the R signal of the performance signal mixed and adjusted by the mixer unit 20 are sent to the stereo power amplifier unit 50 via the output terminal OUT-L and the output terminal OUT-R, amplified by the stereo power amplifier unit 50, and output by the venue speakers (L / R) 51.
[0019] The earphone monitor system of the prior art shown in FIGS. 1 to 5 is such that an audio engineer transmits, as a monitor output, the signal adjusted by the mixer unit 20 from a transmitter 300 for earphone monitors via the output terminal AUX-L and the output terminal AUX-R, and the receivers 600-1 to 600-N for earphone monitors receive the signal, and each performer 1 to N listens through the earphones 700-1 to 700-N. That is, according to the earphone monitor system of the prior art, all of the performers 1 to N listen to the same performance sound that has been mixed and adjusted. However, the performers have a demand to hear their own performance sound louder than other performance sounds, and the earphone monitor system of the prior art could not meet this demand.
[0020] The embodiment of the present disclosure is for solving the problems of the prior art, and an object thereof is to provide an earphone monitor system that allows a performer to hear the performance sound that the performer requests, including the performance sound that the performer himself / herself performs.
[0021] Embodiment 1. Next, the earphone monitor system according to Embodiment 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 to 13. FIG. 6 is a block diagram showing a mixing console of the earphone monitoring system according to Embodiment 1, FIG. 7 is a block diagram showing a second transmitter of the earphone monitoring system according to Embodiment 1, FIG. 8 is a block diagram showing a first transmitter of the earphone monitoring system according to Embodiment 1, FIG. 9 is a block diagram showing a first receiver and the like of the earphone monitoring system according to Embodiment 1, FIG. 10 is a block diagram showing a first composite signal generation unit according to Embodiment 1, FIG. 11 is a block diagram showing a second composite signal generation unit according to Embodiment 1, FIG. 12 is a block diagram for explaining demodulation of the first composite signal according to Embodiment 1, and FIG. 13 is a block diagram for explaining demodulation of the second composite signal according to Embodiment 1.
[0022] The earphone monitoring system of Embodiment 1 shown in FIGS. 6 to 13 includes a mixing console 10 including a mixer unit 20, one first transmitter 40 including a first composite signal generation unit 41 and a first FM modulation transmitter unit 42, five second transmitters 30-1, 30-2, ~30-5 each including a second composite signal generation unit 31-1, 31-2, ~31-5 and a second FM modulation transmitter unit 32-1, 32-2, ~32-5, ten first receivers 60-1~60-10 each including a first FM reception demodulation unit 61-1~61-10, a second FM reception demodulation unit 62-1~62-10, a first monaural amplification unit 63-1~63-10, a second monaural amplification unit 64-1~64-10, and an L / R selection unit 65-1~65-10, eleven to N fifth receivers 80 each including an FM reception demodulation unit 81 and a stereo amplification unit 82, earphones (L / R) 70-1~70-10 connected to the first receivers 60-1~60-10, and earphones (L / R) 90 connected to the fifth receiver 80.
[0023] As shown in FIG. 6, the mixing console 10 is provided with N (N is an integer) input terminals input1 to input terminal inputN and N output terminals AUX-out1 to output terminal AUX-outN. Performance signals from performer 1 to performer N are input to the N input terminals input1 to input terminal inputN. The performance signals from performer 1 to performer N input to the mixing console 10 are respectively captured as the signals of channel 1 (ch1) to the signals of channel N (chN). Also, the signals of channel 1 (ch1) to the signals of channel N (chN) are connected to the N output terminals AUX-out1 to output terminal AUX-outN of the mixing console 10. The mixer section 20 of the mixing console 10 captures the signals of channel 1 (ch1) to the signals of channel N (chN), which are the performance signals from performer 1 to performer N. The mixer section 20 captures the signals of channel 1 (ch1) to the signals of channel N (chN), and mixing is performed by the sound engineer (PA: Public Address). Volume, L / R position setting, post-mixing L / R volume adjustment, etc. of each channel (ch1 to chN) signal are carried out. The signals after mixing by the mixer section 20 are output from the output terminals AUX-L and output terminal AUX-R as monitor outputs, and are also output from the output terminals OUT-L and output terminal OUT-R as venue outputs.
[0024] As shown in FIG. 8, the first transmitter 40 includes a first composite signal generation section 41 and a first FM modulation transmission section 42. The L signal and the R signal, which are the performance signals mixed and adjusted by the mixer section 20, are input to the L terminal and the R terminal of the first composite signal generation section 41 of the first transmitter 40 via the output terminals AUX-L and output terminal AUX-R. The first composite signal generation section 41 generates a first composite signal vcomp1 based on the L signal and the R signal input from the mixer section 20. The first composite signal vcomp1 generated by the first composite signal generation section 41 is FM modulated by the first FM modulation transmission section 42 and transmitted as a radio wave of the first frequency f1 via the antenna.
[0025] The configuration and operation of the first composite signal generation unit 41 are the same as those of the composite signal generation unit 310 described in the prior art. That is, as shown in FIG. 10, the first composite signal generation unit 41 includes an adder 411, a subtractor 412, a multiplier 413, an adder 414, an oscillator 415, and a 1 / 2 frequency divider 416. In FIG. 10, assuming that the L signal and the R signal input from the mixer unit 20 are vL and vR, the adder 411 outputs vL + vR, and the subtractor 412 outputs vL - vR. The multiplier 413 multiplies vL - vR output from the subtractor 412 by sin(ωst) output from the oscillator 415 and outputs (vL - vR)·sin(ωst). Note that the carrier frequency fs = ωs / 2π. The adder 414 adds the output of the adder 411, the output of the multiplier 413, and Ap·sin(ωs / 2)t which is the output of the 1 / 2 frequency divider 416 to output the first composite signal vcomp1. Note that Ap·sin(ωs / 2)t is a pilot signal, and Ap is the amplitude of the pilot signal. That is, vcomp1 = vL + vR + (vL - vR)·sin(ωst) + Ap·sin(ωs / 2)t.
[0026] In FIG. 7, the second transmitters 30-1, 30-2, ~30-5 each include a second composite signal generation unit 31-1, 31-2, ~31-5 and a second FM modulation transmitter unit 32-1, 32-2, ~32-5. Note that the second transmitters 30-1, 30-2, ~30-5 may be collectively referred to as the second transmitter 30. The performance signals of performers 1 to 10 input to the mixer console 10 are respectively captured as signals of channel 1 (ch1) to channel 10 (ch10), and the signals of channel 1 (ch1) to channel 10 (ch10) are output from ten output terminals AUX-out1 to output terminal AUX-out10. The second composite signal generation unit 31-1 of the second transmitter 30-1 takes in the signals of channel 1 (ch1) and channel 2 (ch2) from the L input terminal and the R input terminal, and the second composite signal generation unit 31-1 generates the second composite signal vcomp2. The second composite signal generation unit 31-2 of the second transmitter 30-2 takes in the signals of channel 3 (ch3) and channel 4 (ch4) from the L input terminal and the R input terminal, and the second composite signal generation unit 31-2 generates the second composite signal vcomp2. Although not shown in the figure, the second composite signal generation unit 31-3 of the second transmitter 30-3 takes in the signals of channel 5 (ch5) and channel 6 (ch6) from the L input terminal and the R input terminal, and the second composite signal generation unit 31-3 generates the second composite signal vcomp2. Although not shown in the figure, the second composite signal generation unit 31-4 of the second transmitter 30-4 takes in the signals of channel 6 (ch6) and channel 7 (ch7) from the L input terminal and the R input terminal, and the second composite signal generation unit 31-4 generates the second composite signal vcomp2. Then, the second composite signal generation unit 31-5 of the second transmitter 30-5 takes in the signals of channel 9 (ch9) and channel 10 (ch10) from the L input terminal and the R input terminal, and the second composite signal generation unit 31-5 generates the second composite signal vcomp2.
[0027] FIG. 11 is a block diagram showing a second composite signal generation unit of a pilot tone system according to Embodiment 1. In FIG. 11, the second composite signal generation unit 31-1 is shown as a representative, and its configuration and operation will be described. The second composite signal generation units 31-2 to 31-5 have the same configuration as the second composite signal generation unit 31-1. As shown in FIG. 11, the second composite signal generation unit 31-1 includes an adder 111, a subtractor 112, a multiplier 113, an adder 114, an oscillator 115, and a divide-by-2 circuit 116. In FIG. 11, the second composite signal generation unit 31-1 takes in the signals of channel 1 (ch1) and channel 2 (ch2) from the mixer unit 20 through the L input terminal and the R input terminal. If the input signals of channel 1 (ch1) and channel 2 (ch2) are vch1 and vch2 respectively, the adder 111 outputs vch1 + vch2, and the subtractor 112 outputs vch1 - vch2. The multiplier 113 multiplies vch1 - vch2 output from the subtractor 112 by sin(ωst) output from the oscillator 115, and outputs (vch1 - vch2)·sin(ωst). Note that the carrier frequency fs = ωs / 2π. The adder 114 adds the output of the adder 111, the output of the multiplier 113, and Ap·sin(ωs / 2)t which is the output of the 1 / 2 frequency divider 116, and outputs the second composite signal vcomp2. Note that Ap·sin(ωs / 2)t is the pilot signal, and Ap is the amplitude of the pilot signal. That is, vcomp2 = vch1 + vch2 + (vch1 - vch2)·sin(ωst) + Ap·sin(ωs / 2)t.
[0028] In the same way as above, the second composite signal generation unit 31-2 takes in the signals of channel 3 (ch3) and channel 4 (ch4) from the mixer unit 20 through the L input terminal and the R input terminal. If the input signals of channel 3 (ch3) and channel 4 (ch4) are vch3 and vch4 respectively, the second composite signal vcomp2 output from the second composite signal generation unit 31-2 is as follows. vcomp2 = vch3 + vch4 + (vch3 - vch4)·sin(ωst) + Ap·sin(ωs / 2)t
[0029] Further, the second composite signal generation unit 31-3 takes in the signals of channel 5 (ch5) and channel 6 (ch6) from the mixer unit 20 through the L input terminal and the R input terminal. When the signals of channel 5 (ch5) and channel 6 (ch6) input are vch5 and vch6, the second composite signal vcomp2 output from the second composite signal generation unit 31-3 is as follows. vcomp2 = vch5 + vch6 + (vch5 - vch6)·sin(ωst) + Ap·sin(ωs / 2)t
[0030] Also, the second composite signal generation unit 31-4 takes in the signals of channel 7 (ch7) and channel 8 (ch8) from the mixer unit 20 through the L input terminal and the R input terminal. When the signals of channel 7 (ch7) and channel 8 (ch8) input are vch7 and vch8, the second composite signal vcomp2 output from the second composite signal generation unit 31-4 is as follows. vcomp2 = vch7 + vch8 + (vch7 - vch8)·sin(ωst) + Ap·sin(ωs / 2)t
[0031] Furthermore, the second composite signal generation unit 31-5 takes in the signals of channel 9 (ch9) and channel 10 (ch10) from the mixer unit 20 through the L input terminal and the R input terminal. When the signals of channel 9 (ch9) and channel 10 (ch10) input are vch9 and vch10, the second composite signal vcomp2 output from the second composite signal generation unit 31-5 is as follows. vcomp2 = vch9 + vch10 + (vch9 - vch10)·sin(ωst) + Ap·sin(ωs / 2)t
[0032] Each second composite signal vcomp2 generated by the second composite signal generation units 31-1, 31-2, 31-3, 31-4, and 31-5 is frequency-modulated by the second FM modulation transmission units 32-1, 32-2, 32-3, 32-4, and 32-5 respectively and transmitted as radio waves of the second frequency f2-1, the second frequency f2-2, the second frequency f2-3, the second frequency f2-4, and the second frequency f2-5 respectively via an antenna. Note that the radio waves of the second frequency f2-1, the second frequency f2-2, the second frequency f2-3, the second frequency f2-4, and the second frequency f2-5 are collectively referred to as the second frequency f2. Also, since the configurations and operations of the second FM modulation transmission units 32-1, 32-2, 32-3, 32-4, and 32-5 are known techniques, detailed descriptions thereof are omitted.
[0033] Here, in the first embodiment, the frequency bands of the first frequency f1 transmitted from the first transmitter 40 and the second frequency f2 transmitted from the second transmitters 30-1, 30-2, 30-3, 30-4, and 30-5 will be described. In the first embodiment, for example, the B-type band in the 800 MHz band that does not require a license in Japan is used, and six waves from B11 to B61 can be used in one group. An example in which FM transmission and reception of six waves can be performed in the same space will be described. That is, in the first embodiment, FM transmission and reception are performed using six waves of the first frequency f1 and the second frequencies f2 to f5, which are the B-type bands. Note that also in the second embodiment described later, the same frequency band as in the first embodiment is used. Also, the above is merely an example, and the frequency band to be used is not limited to this.
[0034] As shown in FIG. 9, the ten first receivers 60-1 to 60-10 for earphone monitors are for performers 1 to 10, for example, and include first FM reception demodulation units 61-1 to 61-10, second FM reception demodulation units 62-1 to 62-10, first monaural amplification units 63-1 to 63-10, second monaural amplification units 64-1 to 64-10, and L / R selection units 65-1 to 65-10 respectively. Further, the fifth receiver 80 is, for example, for performers 11 to N, and includes an FM reception demodulation unit 81 and a stereo amplification unit 82.
[0035] The radio waves of the first frequency f1 transmitted from the first transmitter 40 shown in FIG. 8 and the radio waves of the second frequencies f2-1 to f2-5 transmitted from the second transmitters 30-1 to 30-5 shown in FIG. 7 are taken into the first receivers 60-1 to 60-10 via the antennas 66-1 to 66-10 of the first receivers 60-1 to 60-10.
[0036] In FIG. 9, the first FM reception demodulation units 61-1 to 61-10 of the first receivers 60-1 to 60-10 FM demodulate the radio wave signal of the first frequency f1 transmitted from the first transmitter 40 to extract the first composite signal vcomp1, and demodulate this first composite signal vcomp1 into a monaural signal.
[0037] FIG. 12 is a block diagram for explaining the demodulation of the first composite signal according to Embodiment 1. In the block diagram of FIG. 12, a low-pass filter 51a, an adder 52a, an oscillator 53a, a band-pass filter 54a, a detection circuit 55a, an adder 56a, a subtractor 57a, and an adder 58a are provided. In FIG. 12, the first composite signal vcomp1 can obtain vL + vR by removing components of a predetermined frequency or higher with the low-pass filter 51a. Further, a carrier signal 3sinωst is added to the first composite signal vcomp1 by the oscillator 53a and the adder 52a, and then passed through a band-pass filter 54a that passes a predetermined frequency band to obtain an AM modulated wave. Then, the envelope of the waveform of this AM modulated wave is extracted by the detection circuit 55a to obtain vL - vR. Then, by calculating the sum and difference of vL + vR and vL - vR with the adder 56a and the subtractor 57a, 2vL and 2vR can be obtained, and further, by adding with the adder 58a, a monaural signal 2vL + 2vR can be obtained.
[0038] In Fig. 9, the second FM reception demodulation units 62-1 to 62-10 of the first receivers 60-1 to 60-10 FM demodulate one of the radio signals of the second frequencies f2-1 to f2-5 transmitted from the second transmitters 30-1 to 30-5, extract the second composite signal vcomp2, and demodulate the second composite signal vcomp2 into a stereo signal.
