Abstract
An online conversation management apparatus includes a processor. The processor acquires, across a network, reproduction environment information from at least one terminal that reproduces a sound image via a reproduction device. The reproduction environment information is information of a sound reproduction environment of the reproduction device. The processor acquires azimuth information. The azimuth information is information of a localization direction of the sound image with respect to a user of the terminal. The processor performs control for reproducing a sound image of each terminal based on the reproduction environment information and the azimuth information.
