ABSTRACT:
A variable preemphasis/deemphasis network is disclosed which is coupled between audio input and output terminals. The network exhibits a family of transfer function response characteristics which vary between a full deemphasis characteristic H(f) and a full emphasis characteristic 1/H(f) in response to a control signal and exhibits complementary transfer function response characteristics in response to reciprocal valued control signals. The network includes a signal filter which determines the shape of the transfer function response characteristic, and a gain controlled amplifier which determines which one of the family of transfer function response characteristics is exhibited in response to the control signal.
