SOUND DEVICE AND SOUND CONTROL DEVICE
First Claim
1. A sound device comprising:
- an audio-information output unit configured to output an audio information;
an analysis unit configured to receive the audio information outputted from the audio-information output unit, and then output a sound-spectrum information of the audio information inputted thereto;
an audio-division-spectrum output unit configured to receive the sound-spectrum information of the audio information, and then output an audio-division-spectrum information indicative of a sound-volume information for each critical band width of the sound-spectrum information of the audio information inputted thereto;
a noise-division-spectrum output unit configured to output a noise-division-spectrum information indicative of a sound-volume information for each critical band width of a noise; and
a correction unit configured to correct the audio-division-spectrum information based on the noise-division-spectrum information, and then output a correction-division-spectrum information indicative of thus corrected audio-division-spectrum information.

Abstract
The sound device includes an audio-information output unit, an analysis unit, an audio-division-spectrum output unit, a noise-division-spectrum output unit and a correction unit. The analysis unit receives audio information from the audio-information output unit, and then outputs sound spectrum information. The noise-division-spectrum output unit outputs sound-volume information for each critical band width of a noise, and the audio-division-spectrum output unit outputs the sound-volume information for each critical band width of the sound-spectrum information. The correction unit corrects the information from the audio-division-spectrum output unit based on the information from the noise-division-spectrum output unit. The audio-signal properties can be well corrected corresponding to the auditory-sense properties of the human, and thus the audio sound, in which an uncomfortable feeling to the auditory sense of the human has been adequately controlled, can be transmitted to a user.

11. A sound control device adapted to be connected with a noise-division-spectrum storage unit which is configured to store therein a sound-volume information for each critical band width of a noise, comprising:
-
a noise-information pick-out unit configured to obtain a noise-division-spectrum information indicative of a sound-volume information for each critical band width of the noise associated an environment from the noise-division-spectrum storage unit, and then outputting thus obtained noise-division-spectrum information; an analysis unit configured to output a sound-spectrum information of an audio information inputted thereto; an audio-division-spectrum output unit configured to receive the sound-spectrum information of the audio information, and then output an audio-division-spectrum information indicative of a sound-volume information for each critical band width of the sound-spectrum information of the audio information inputted thereto; and a correction unit configured to correct the audio-division-spectrum information based on the noise-division-spectrum information, and then output a correction-division-spectrum information indicative of thus corrected audio-division-spectrum information.
