Abstract
A desired range of an audio file is repeatedly reproduced without a need to store sound data of a predetermined period in a memory in advance and without causing an interruption or a time lag. A CPU of an audio device activates at least two media players A and B for reproducing an audio file. During reproduction of the audio file by the media player A, the media player B is set to a wait state, and, in response to completion of the reproduction of the audio file by the media player A, the wait state of the media player B is automatically released and reproduction of the audio file is started, to achieve repeat reproduction.
