Abstract:
When an instruction is provided for changing a characteristic of a set filter which includes a plurality of partial filters and forms a specified characteristic by combining a plurality of partial filters, a processor performs, as crossfading processing for a first filter and a second filter among the plurality of partial filters, fade-out processing of gradually decreasing a degree of contribution of the first filter to the characteristic and fade-in processing of gradually increasing a degree of contribution of the second filter to the characteristic. As a result, unnaturalness occurring at the time of changing filter characteristics is solved.

Claim (Index 6):
The filter characteristics changing device according to  claim 1 , wherein the set filter is constituted by a delay recursive filter which includes a circulating section and a delay section and is capable of varying a delay time of a signal and an amplification-related filter which is different from the delay recursive filter and is incapable of varying the delay time of the signal, and\n wherein the processor performs switching by the crossfading processing for the delay recursive filter, and performs, for the amplification-related filter, processing of gradually changing each parameter of the amplification-related filter without using the crossfading processing.
