Abstract
Multiple independent sound images are formed by integrally performing uncorrelation processing and sound image localization processing on an input audio signal with signal processors that use output functions hl(x) and hr(x) obtained by integrating an uncorrelation function that generate multiple audio signals with low mutual correlation from an input audio signal. The signal processors have a sound image localization function for localizing the sound image of each of the multiple audio signals at a given sound source position.
