In an audio processing apparatus, a signal processor controls a volume of a sound signal provided to a sound emitting device. An adaptive filter determines an adaptive signal so as to minimize a magnitude of an error signal. A subtracter generates the error signal represented by a difference between the adaptive signal and an observation signal generated by a sound receiving device. A magnitude ratio calculator calculates a magnitude ratio of the observation signal relative to the error signal or magnitude ratio of the adaptive signal relative to the error signal for each frame that is sequentially segmented from the error signal along a time axis. A controller variably controls a gain of the volume of the sound signal according to the magnitude of the error signal when the magnitude ratio is less than a reference value, and controls the gain of the volume of the sound signal so as to suppress an increase of the gain according to the magnitude of the error signal when the magnitude ratio is higher than the reference value.
