A method is provided for extending the frequency band of an audio signal during a decoding or improvement process. The method includes obtaining the decoded signal in a first frequency band, referred to as a low band. Tonal components and a surround signal are extracted from the signal from the low-band signal, and the tonal components and the surround signal are combined by adaptive mixing using energy-level control factors to obtain an audio signal, referred to as a combined signal. The low-band decoded signal before the extraction step or the combined signal after the combination step are extended over at least one second frequency band which is higher than the first frequency band. Also proved are a frequency-band extension device which implements the described method and a decoder including a device of this type.

In some embodiments, a stamp comprising at least one stamping component and one stamping insert with a mounted band unit. The stamping component may comprise a top part and a bottom part with a cushion-receiving element. The mounted band unit may be connected so as to move synchronously via a reversing mechanism in the bottom part to the top part. In the resting position a text plate mounted on the stamping insert and a stamping area of the mounted band unit may abut against an ink pad soaked with ink in the cushion-receiving element. During a stamping process for producing a stamp impression the stamping insert can be shifted via the reversing mechanism into a stamping position. On the stamping insert, a height adjustment element for the mounted band unit and/or a text plate carrier may be provided.
