Description
La présente invention concerne un dispositif électronique non automatique d'aide å la synchronisation des rythmes de plusieurs enregistrements musicaux
La synchronisation est une condition sine qua non de ltenchainement musical mixé.The present invention relates to a non-automatic electronic device for synchronizing the rhythms of several musical recordings.
Synchronization is a sine qua non of mixed musical mixing.
La synchronisation d'enregistrements peut se décomposer en deux étapes:
1) rendre égaux les rythmes musicaux des enregistrements (nombre de battements par minute) en augmentant ou en diminuant la vitesse de diffusion des enregistrements grtce å une commande appelée "variateur de vitesse. Les variateurs de vitesse existent sur å peu près tous les types d'appareils de lecture d'enregistrements musicaux tels que, par exemple, platine disques microsillons, magnétophone analogique ou numérique, lecteur laser de disques compacts audio et video.Synchronization of records can be broken down into two stages:
1) equalize the musical rhythms of the recordings (number of beats per minute) by increasing or decreasing the speed of the recordings with a command called "speed variator." Variable speed drives exist on almost all types of apparatus for reading musical recordings, such as, for example, record player, analog or digital recorder, laser player for audio and video compact discs.
Le fonctionnement de ces appareils est cadencé par une oscillation générée par un oscillateur et acheminée å l'entree-horloge de l'appareil.The operation of these devices is clocked by oscillation generated by an oscillator and routed to the clock input of the apparatus.
La commande de variateur de vitesse agit sur l'oscillateur pour déterminer la fréquence de l'oscillation, réalisant ainsi l'opération 1 > .The speed controller control acts on the oscillator to determine the frequency of the oscillation, thereby accomplishing the operation 1>.
A ce stade de la synchronisation, les nombres respectifs de battements par minute des enregistrements à enchafner sont égaux mais les battements ne coincident pas forcément. At this stage of the synchronization, the respective numbers of beats per minute of the recordings to be enchafner are equal but the beats do not coincide necessarily.
2 > faire coincider dans le temps ("caler") les battements des rythmes des enregistrements. 2> to make coincide in time ("stall") the beats of the rhythms of the recordings.
Ce "calage" est traditionnellement effectué exclusivement sur des enregistrements sur disque vinyle microsillon. En effet, seul ce support permet au manipulateur tappelé disc jockey) d'effectuer pendant la durée du mixage une opération manuelle fugitive de réajustement, sans perdre pour autant le réglage établi en 1). La technique utilisée consiste à freiner ou à accélérer par action mécanique des doigts, la rotation du plateau de la platine disques.This "calibration" is traditionally performed exclusively on recordings vinyl record microsillon. Indeed, only this support allows the called manipulator disc jockey) to perform during the duration of the mixing a manual fugitive readjustment operation, without losing the setting established in 1). The technique used consists in braking or accelerating by mechanical action of the fingers, the rotation of the platter of the platinum discs.
Il est à noter que le réglage de vitesse obtenu par la commande de variateur de vitesse atteint rarement la précision souhaitée et que de plus, les rythmes musicaux des enregistrements peuvent varier légèrement en cours de mixage. Il s'ensuit presque irrémédiablement un décalage progressif des rythmes musicaux.It should be noted that the speed setting obtained by the variable speed drive seldom achieves the desired accuracy and that, in addition, the musical rhythms of the recordings may vary slightly during mixing. It follows almost irreparably a progressive shift of musical rhythms.
Le manipulateur doit donc avoir recours, en cours de mixage, à l'opération de recalage définie au début de ce paragraphe. The manipulator must therefore use, during mixing, the resetting operation defined at the beginning of this paragraph.
La présente invention consiste en un moyen électronique de calage dont l'action se substitue à la précaire opération mécanique de calage manuel décrite en 2). Le dispositif selon l'invention a l'avantage d'etre électronique et son application ne se limite donc plus aux platines disques microsillon, mais s'étend à tous les types d'appareils de lecture d'enregistrements musicaux, tels que, par exemple, magnétophone analogique ou numérique, lecteur laser de disques compacts audio et video. The present invention consists of an electronic wedging means whose action replaces the precarious mechanical manual setting operation described in 2). The device according to the invention has the advantage of being electronic and its application is therefore no longer limited to microstrip record players, but extends to all types of music record playback apparatus, such as, for example , analog or digital tape recorder, laser player for audio and video compact discs.
La commande de calage peut entre étudiée de façon à ce que son action soit imperceptible à l'oreille (c'est-à-dire qu'elle n'engendre qu'un faible pleurage).The calibration control can be studied in such a way that its action is imperceptible to the ear (that is to say that it engenders only a small cry).
La présente invention est constituée d'un oscillateur dont la fréquence est déterminée par: - réglage du variateur de vitesse et, - action (fugitive} sur la commande de "calage". The present invention consists of an oscillator whose frequency is determined by: - adjustment of the speed controller and, - action (fugitive} on the control of "calibration".
Cet oscillateur est connecté à l'entrée-horloge de l'appareil de lecture.This oscillator is connected to the clock input of the reading device.
Il peut etre connecté par exemple en remplacement du traditionnel quart ou d'un autre quelconque traditionnel oscillateur dudit appareil de lecture.It can be connected for example by replacing the traditional quarter or any other traditional oscillator of said reading device.
Selon une forme préférentielle de réalisation, la commande de calage est un variateur de vitesse spécial dont l'action sur l'oscillateur de l'appareil de lecture se cumule ou se retranche à celle du traditionnel variateur de vitesse. Suivant cette forme préférentielle de réalisation, la commande de calage réalise une faible variation de vitesse, et son entrée en action est donc imperceptible à l'oreille (faible pleurage).According to a preferred embodiment, the stall control is a special speed variator whose action on the oscillator of the reading device is accumulated or subtracted from that of the traditional variable speed drive. According to this preferred embodiment, the stall control achieves a small variation in speed, and its entry into action is imperceptible to the ear (low pleurage).
La solution technologique retenue pour cette forme de réalisation de la commande de calage est caractérisée en ce que: - la fréquence de l'oscillateur est déterminée par la mise en circuit ou hors circuit de résistances montées en série avec la résistance variable du variateur de vitesse.The technological solution adopted for this embodiment of the calibration control is characterized in that: the frequency of the oscillator is determined by the switching on or off of resistors connected in series with the variable resistance of the variable speed drive .
- la commande de calage est constituée par deux boutons poussoirs.- The calibration control consists of two push buttons.
Selon une autre forme de réalisation, la commande de calage peut etre constituée par une résistance variable.According to another embodiment, the stall control can be constituted by a variable resistor.
Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention:
La figure I représente le schéma selon l'invention.The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention:
Figure I shows the diagram according to the invention.
La figure 2 représente le détail d'une forme préférentielle de réalisation de la commande de calage. Figure 2 shows the detail of a preferred embodiment of the stall control.
Le dispositif représenté sur la figure 1 comporte un appareil de lecture (x), dont l'entrée-horloge (h) reçoit l'oscillation générée par 1 'oscillateur (o). La fréquence de cet oscillateur est réglée au moyen de deux commandes: la commande de variateur de vitesse (a) et la commande de calage (b). The device shown in FIG. 1 comprises a reading device (x), whose clock input (h) receives the oscillation generated by the oscillator (o). The frequency of this oscillator is set by means of two commands: the speed controller control (a) and the calibration control (b).
Dans la forme de réalisation selon la figure 2, la fréquence de l'oscillateur (o) est réglée au moyen d'une résistance variable constituant la commande de variateur de vitesse (a), reliée en série avec la commande de calage (b) elle-même constituée de deux résistances fixes mises en ou hors circuit grtce à deux boutons poussoirs. In the embodiment according to FIG. 2, the frequency of the oscillator (o) is regulated by means of a variable resistor constituting the speed controller control (a), connected in series with the calibration control (b). itself consists of two fixed resistors switched on or off with two push buttons.
