Abstract
Abstract A resonance characteristic control unit is provided with a first memory for storing first data corresponding to poles of a digital filter under a non-resonance condition, and a second memory for storing second data corresponding to poles of the filter under maximum resonance amplitude condition. The data stored in these memories are read out to calculate a filter coefficient corresponding to the resonance amplitude. The calculated resultant data is supplied to the digital filter to obtain a filtered output which is provided with a desired resonance characteristic.
