Abstract:
An acoustic system comprises an operation condition determination part for determining an operation condition of an operating element for controlling sound volume of a sound reproduction device which reproduces sounds from a plurality of sound sources, and a control part for changing a control object of the sound volume by the operating element in accordance with the sound source which is reproduced by the sound reproduction device, based on the operation condition determined by the operation condition determination part. The control part prohibits switching of the control object of the sound volume by operation of the operating element even when the sound source to be reproduced has been changed while it is determined by the operation condition determination part that the operation of the operating element is continuously performed.

Claim (Index 2):
The acoustic system according to  claim 1 , wherein the sound sources comprise a media player and a guiding message player,\n when both of sounds from the media player and the guiding message player are reproduced, the controller applies the sound volume control by the operating element to a guiding message sound from the guiding message player in a case where it is determined by the operation condition determinator that the operation of the operating element has been started during the reproduction of both of the sounds from the media player and the guiding message player, and when either of the sound from the media player or the guiding message sound from the guiding message player is reproduced, the controller applies the sound volume control by the operating element to the sound which is reproduced, in a case where it is determined by the operation condition determinator that the operation of the operating element has been started during the reproduction of the sound being reproduced.
