Abstract:
An audio processing apparatus has a setting processor that sets a size of a virtual sound source; and a signal processor that generates an audio signal by imparting to an audio signal a plurality of head-related transfer characteristics. The plurality of head-related transfer characteristics corresponds to respective points within a range that accords with the size set by the setting processor from among a plurality of points, with each point having a different position relative to a listening point.

Claim (Index 2):
The audio processing method according to  claim 1 ,\n wherein the generation of the second audio signal includes:\n setting the range according to the size of the virtual sound source; \n synthesizing the plurality of head-related transfer characteristics corresponding to the respective points within the set range to generate a synthesized head-related transfer characteristic; and \n generating the second audio signal by imparting the synthesized head-related transfer characteristic to the first audio signal.
