Abstract

Audio process units for controllably mixing L-channel and R-channel portions of a CD/CD-I audio signal each use a single attenuator (or digital multiplier) for developing L*G(LL), L*G(LR), R*G(RR) and R*G(RL) responses to L-channel and R-channel input signals through time sharing processing. This reduces the amount of digital hardware required for developing these responses. The L*G(LL) and R*G(RL) responses are additively combined to generate an L-channel output signal; and the R*G(RL) and R*G(RR) responses are additively combined to generate an R-channel output signal. L*G(LL), L*G(LR), R*G(RL) and R*G(RR) responses are successively generated on a cyclic basis in one type of such audio process unit, using a successive-shift-and-selective-accumulation digital multiplication procedure to generate each response. L*G(LR), L*G(LL), R*G(RL) and R*G(RR) responses are successively generated on a cyclic basis in an altenative type of such audio process unit, using a successive-shift-and-selective-accumulation digital multiplication procedure to generate each response.
