Abstract:
An audio processing apparatus and an audio processing method are provided. The audio processing apparatus includes a microphone array, a processor, and an audio signal processor. The microphone array is configured to provide an external audio signal having a first sampling frequency. The external audio signal includes a first audio signal and a second audio signal. The processor provides a first setting command and a second setting command according to the external audio signal and the second audio signal. The audio signal processor generates the second audio signal having a second sampling frequency according to the first setting command, adjusts the second sampling frequency of the second audio signal to the first sampling frequency according to the second setting command, and separates the first audio signal in the external audio signal according to the second audio signal having the first sampling frequency.

Claim (Index 12):
An audio processing method comprising:\n receiving an external audio signal to provide the external audio signal having a first sampling frequency, wherein the external audio signal comprises a first audio signal and a second audio signal; receiving the second audio signal, and providing a first setting command and a second setting command according to the external audio signal and the second audio signal; generating a sampled second audio signal having a second sampling frequency according to the first setting command, wherein the step of generating the sampled second audio signal having the second sampling frequency according to the first setting command comprises:\n providing the first setting command to adjust the second sampling frequency to generate the sampled second audio signal having the adjusted second sampling frequency, when the sampling frequency of the second audio signal is changed; \n adjusting the second sampling frequency of the sampled second audio signal to the first sampling frequency according to the second setting command; and separating the first audio signal in the external audio signal according to the sampled second audio signal having the first sampling frequency.
