8 Claims. My in-vention pertains to recording and repro- -duci-ng devicesand-more particularly'to amethod of re'ducing or eliminating time shiftor' phase sl-iift distortion-in'a signal introduced by the according and/or reproducing "process.

further object of my invention is to estabd-ish a phase shiftd-istortionin a-signal which is @equal to-andpf"anopposite sense from an unnleslred 'phaseshift in the signal, and to thereby substantially cancel-the undesired phase shift.
- It is also-anobject of *my invention to provide "a recordingsystem Whichsubstantially cancels wphase shift'd-istortion in the Si nal.

vv i-figureti-illustrates the signal of Figure 5 after opassing .:through the complete recording-reproducing equipmenttwice-in accordance with my limrention.
"Figurefl illustratesthe appearance of'the sig- :.=na'l.':ofiFigure 2 if conventional recording and-re- ':-;producing;=processes are used.
My means and method for recording and re- ;..producing raysignal'with little or noundesired rtimeyorqphase shift :betweenfrequencies is generally.applicable =to all recording and reproducing \systems.=including film, magnetic tape, and-disk. flt, -is...described in connection-with a disk record- -'ing system but this is not to be construed as a limitation onthe scope of the invention which is *to 'belimited only by the claims and theprior "art.
In record-ingand reproducing systems there -:are-=th-ree requirements that must be satisfied in uorder' thatan exact-facsimile of a recorded signal rcan be reproduced. One; there must be noamiplitude distorti'on fiat frequency response) .mwol'ithere must be :'anabsenoe'- oi -harmonic *distortion. Three; there must be no time shift between .frequencies (no phase shift). Practically all previous work in film, tape, and disk recording and reproducing has been in connection with the first and second requirements which have been considered more important for acoustical excellence than the third requirement. The average human ear seems to tolerate considerable .phase shift in the reproduced signal without noticing severe effect on the quality of the reproduction. In instrument work, such for ex;- ample as a transient analyzer (see my application Serial No. 399,999, now abandoned), the phase relation between two components of one signal are of great importance. For this type of work the undesired phase shift should be reduced to a minimum. The device and method illustrated in Figure 1 substantially cancels the undesired phase shift which may be present in recording and reproducing a signal, thereby establishing a signal which, in effect, has no phase shift.
The device illustrated in Figure 1 comprises a first phonograph disk It of recording material which is driven in thedirection of the arrow H by amotor ii. Arecording head or cutter mechanism i2 is associated-with the disk it and receives a signal from the recording amplifier it. The input terminals It, l5 of the recording am pl-ifier I3 are adapted to be connected to a source 'of signalsuch for example as the source of a transient. The recording amplifier is and therecording-head i2 eachmayintroduce phase shift distortion-into the signal which is applied at terminals l4, l5. This phase shiftedsignal is recorded on the'disk m by any of the conventional means or methods. After the signal has beenrecorded-thedirection of rotation of the disklo is reversed so that it moves in the direc "tion of arrow 16. This reversal may be effected "by any means, such for example by switch H, A phonograph--pickup l3 is provided adjacent the disk. in and is adapted to convert the signal recorded thereonback into a variable electrical impulse. It is to be remembered that due to the reversal-0f the direction of motion'ofthe disk to and the various phase shift distortion introduced-the output from'the pickup is will not be -the same asthe input totherecording head 12. The output from-the pickup head i8 is amplified bythereproducing amplifier iii and is connected to the input of the recording amplifier 43. *Both the pickup is and the reproducing am plifier lli may introduce further phaseshift dis -tortions-=in-the--signal.
The motor 9 also drives another phonograph disk 25 of recording material in the direction of the arrow 26. The recording head I? is swung over into the dotted position and records on the disk 25 the reversed signal which the pickup l8 while operating on disk is feeds to the recording amplifier 13. When the reversed signal has been recorded the direction of rotation of the disk 25 is reversed to that indicated by the arrow 21, and the pickup arm is is swung into its dotted position and reproduces the recorded signal. The signal is amplified by the amplifier la and appears at the oscilloscope 28, or some other suitable device. Due to reverses of the direction of rotation of the disks ill and 25 the signal output from the pickup is is reproduced in proper sequence. That is, it is not backward as it was when reproduced from the disk iii, and due to the signal passing through each phase shifting unit twice, once in a forward direction and once in a reverse direction, the phase shift has been substantially cancelled out.
The principle of cancelling undesired phase shift distortion by the method as described above is as follows: For reasons of simplicity in the explanation the assumption is made that the recording head and the recording amplifier form a unity which introduces a time delay distortion L, which is a function of frequency. On the same basis the assumption is also made that the reproducing head and the reproducing amplifier form another unity which introduces a time delay distortion N, which again is a function of frequency. The over-all time delay of the recording and reproducing process when operated in a normal manner may, therefore, be expressed as the form L+N+T. T is the time delay which is introduced by the time interval between recording and reproducing, and is independent of frequency. For this reason T can be neglected in this consideration.
Since in my system, after the signal has been recorded, the record is reproduced in reverse direction, the portion of the signal which was re corded first will be reproduced last, and therefore the signal obtained on the output terminals of the recording amplifier will include an undesired time shift distortion represented by N L. If this distorted signal is recorded again using the same recording amplifier and the same cutter, or another recording amplifier and another cutter of equal electrical and mechanical characteristics, the signal obtained on the second disk will have an undesired time shift represented by (N-L) +L=N. Since for final reproduction in my system, the direction of rotation of the record is reversed again, the time shift originally existing on the record as N, appears now reversed as N and therefore is cancelled in the second reproduction which introduces a time shift +N. Thus the over-all time shift which was a function of frequency is completely cancelled. To obtain such a cancellation of the time shift N, either the same pickup and reproducing amplifier, or a pickup and reproducing amplifier of characteristics similar to those of the pickup and reproducing amplifier used for th first reproduction, should be used. To obtain perfect results, the disks used in both processes must also be equal in their characteristics. In other words, all the elements must be dupli cated in the second recording, otherwise incomplete cancellation will take place.
In Figures 2 to 7, which represent signals which have been obtained by using one particular disk recording equipment, this process of time shift cancellation is illustrated. Figure 2 represents the signal applied to terminals l4 and I5, and Figure 3 represents the signal after it has passed through the recording amplifier (l3) and appears on the terminals of the recording mechanism (I2). After reversing the direction of disk (Ill) a. signal which is represented by Figure 4 is obtained on the output terminals of the reproducing amplifier. This signal is fed through the recording amplifier l3 and appears as shown in Figure 5 on the terminals of the recording mechanism l2. After the direction of rotation of disk 25 has been reversed the signal picked up from it by pickup head l8 looks as represented by Figure 6, this is a close facsimile of the signal which originally was fed to the input terminals, (l4) and (i5). Its slight waviness is explained by the fact that some rumble was present in the reproducing equipment. If one would have followed the conventional method of re-recording, in which no reversals are present, the original signal represented by Figure 2 would have been changed to the signal represented by Figure 7 on the output terminals (29) and (30). The difference between the signals shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 illustrates clearly the significance ofmy invention.
Though the particular value of this invention is most obvious when applied to recording and reproducing transient phenomena, it has also great significance if used to obtain for certain recording purposes a high signal-to-noise ratio. Peak amplitudes of complex wave forms may be greatly reduced in the recording process thus permitting to make better use of the available range of the recording device. To express it in other words, the ratio of maximum peak height to average recording level may be made much smaller by, selecting a proper phase shifting network. Since complete cancellation of time shift in the recording and reproducing process takes place independently of the circuit elements involved as long as resonance conditions are avoided, the designer of equipment of this kind has great liberty in selecting a particular network for a particular application.
If my system is used for recording and reproducing speech, music, and other signals in which the order of the signal during final reproduction is important, care must be exercised to reverse the direction of rotation of the record medium a sulficient number of times to cause the output signal to be reproduced in proper order. If, however a transient signal such as is illustrated is to be recorded and reproduced, it may not be important that the first art of the signal appear on the left side of the oscilloscope screen. In this case the final reproduction of the signal may be backwards so long as the phase distortion has been cancelled out.
My invention is particularly useful in systems wherein an equalizer network or networks is used in order to obtain a flat frequency response. These networks may introduce phase shift of the signal, but due to my system this phase shift is balanced out.
Although I have described my invention with a certain degree of particularity, it is to be understood that the present disclosure has been made only by way of example and that numerous changes in the details of construction and the combination and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and the scope of the invention as herein-after claimed.
