A sound control method is disclosed which addresses the problem in computer entertainment apparatus that the computer often cannot generate and output at the same time all of the sounds which an application being run on the computer instructs the computer to play. In the method, each sound which the application instructs the computer to play is added to a list. The sounds on the list are then prioritised in accordance with their properties, and the top predetermined number of sounds in terms of the prioritisation are selected to be played. The number of sounds to be selected and played is set in dependence upon the resources available within the computer to generate and output the sounds. In this way, the computer resources are never overloaded, thereby avoiding errors. |
