The method is provided for simulating an audio effect processor. At least two impulse responses are stored representing the audio processor for input signals having different characteristics. The same characteristic of the input signal is then repeatedly assessed and at least one of the impulse responses selected to apply to the input signal in dependence on the result of the assessment. The selected impulse response is then applied to the input signal to derive an output signal. This process continues throughout the duration of the input signal, thereby taking account of time dependent changes in the assessed characteristics.
A reverberation apparatus is designed for generating a reverberation sound from an input sound with use of an impulse response based on an instruction. In the reverberation apparatus, a first storage section stores first impulse response data representative of a first impulse response. A second storage section stores second impulse response data representative of a second impulse response which is different from the first impulse response represented by the first impulse response data. A new data creating section operates based on the first impulse response data and the second impulse response data for creating new impulse response data representative of a new impulse response in accordance with the instruction. A reverberation sound generating section generates reverberation sound data representative of the reverberation sound by filtering input sound data representative of the input sound with use of the new impulse response data, such that the generated reverberation sound is featured by the new impulse response.
A method or device includes a telephone with an audio or video effects generator to produce audio or video effects that are transmitted as part of a signal from the telephone.
A device includes a telephone accessory configured and arranged to transmit an audio signal; and an audio effects generator coupled to the telephone accessory or a video effects generator. The audio effects generator can produce at least one user-initiated audio effect that is transmitted as part of the audio signal. The video effects generator can produce at least one user-initiated visual effect altering an image transmitted by the telephone accessory.
