A Dynamic Noise Reducer for Sum-Difference Multiplex Systems

Authors: Cabot, Richard C.

Journal of the Audio Engineering Society · Volume 25 · Issue 3 · pp. 95–98 · March 1977

Abstract

A means of reducing the apparent noise in systems employing sum-difference multiplexing with no alteration of frequency response is presented. The method takes interchannel separation a function of program level, exchanging separation for an improved signal-to-noise ratio at low volume levels. The psychoacoustic and electronic principles behind its operation and the qualitative results of listening tests on several versions are given.
