Abstract

The information processing device includes an acquisition unit, a determination unit, and a signal processing unit. The acquisition unit acquires one or a plurality of other sound elements. The determination unit determines importance levels of the sound elements acquired by the acquisition unit. The signal processing unit changes a sound source position of at least one of a sound element of a content being reproduced or another sound element according to the importance levels of the sound elements determined by the determination unit. Consequently, even in a case where the sound element of the reproduced content and the another sound element are simultaneously generated, sound interference between the sound element of the reproduced content and the another sound element can be suppressed.
