Method of and apparatus for mixing and reproducing audio information from two sources, and computer program for implementing the method

摘要

An audio information reproducing apparatus (S) reproduces one audio information and reproduces another audio information after said one audio information. The apparatus is provided with: a detecting device (12, 38) for detecting one time period required for one beat of said one audio information, and also detecting another time period for one beat of said another audio information; and a reproducing device (15) for reproducing said another audio information continuously to said one audio information while controlling the detected another time period to be coincident with the detected one time period. Alternatively or additionally, the apparatus is provided with: a detecting device (12, 38) for detecting one beat timing which is a timing of a beat of said one audio information and also detecting another beat timing which is a timing of a beat of said another audio information, so that the reproducing device (15) controls the detected another beat timing to be coincident with the detected one beat timing.
