Abstract
In an information reproducing apparatus, a sound generator generates an indication audio signal corresponding to an external operation state and a performance state to produce it externally without conversion or with conversion into sound. As a result, a wide variety of sounds or voice sounds acting as a warning sound against an erroneous operation and a caution sound telling performance termination are produced and hence an information of warning or caution concerning the operation can be supplied to an user and further can be used as an effective sound.
