Abstract
A method of generating an audible alert by a digital audio system configured to operate in a first operating mode and a second operating mode is described. An alert signal is generated or received. One or more segments of the generated or received alert signal is processed. The processed alert signal is then analysed to define the operating mode of the digital audio system. In the first operating mode, the alert output signal includes at least the alert signal. In the second operating mode, the alert output signal includes at least the processed alert signal.
