摘要

An acoustic content generating device provided with: a processing unit 13 which, with respect to vibration information and/or audio information of a frequency band corresponding to the vibration information, performs processing so that audio based on the vibration information after processing is masked by audio based on the audio information; and a mixing unit 14 which mixes the audio information and the vibration information that have been processed. The acoustic content generating device generates acoustic content comprising audio information and vibration information, the acoustic content having been processed so that a vibration sound is masked by audio. In this way, audio generated on the basis of the vibration information is made less likely to be heard by a user due to a masking effect even when the vibration information certainly exists, is supplied to a speaker, and reproduced as audio.
