Referring to fig. 3, a flow chart of the sound effect control method according to embodiment is shown, in step S110, the receiving unit 110 receives the left channel original signal eL and the right channel original signal eR., and the left channel original signal eL and the right channel original signal eR are conventionally directly and respectively transmitted to the left channel output unit 150 and the right channel output unit 160 for output, but in this embodiment, the left channel original signal eL and the right channel original signal eR are converted into the left channel update signal ZL and the right channel update signal ZR through the conversion unit 120 and the second conversion unit 140, so as to enhance the presence of the user.

In step S120, the converting unit 120 converts the original left channel signal eL and the original right channel signal eR into left channel virtual signal SL and right channel virtual signal SR. of the virtual sound source S. referring to fig. 4, a schematic diagram of the virtual sound source S is shown. if the virtual left channel signal SL and the virtual right channel signal SR generated by the virtual sound source S are known, the original left channel signal eL and the original right channel signal eR. can be derived through calculation of a Head Related Transfer Function (HRTF) technique, and the operation performed in step S120 is to utilize the original left channel signal eL and the original right channel signal eR to derive the virtual left channel signal SL and the virtual right channel signal SR in a backward direction.

In more detail, the step S120 includes steps S121 to S123. in the step S121, the virtual position calculator 121 of the th conversion unit 120 obtains a virtual sound source position of the virtual sound source S with respect to the user the virtual sound source S includes th th virtual horns S1 and second virtual horns S2. the virtual sound source position includes a th virtual horn S1 with respect to the user 'S th th relative angle θ L and a second virtual horn S2 with respect to the user' S second relative angle θ R.

Then, in step S140, the second conversion unit 140 converts the left channel virtual signal SL and the right channel virtual signal SR into a left channel update signal ZL and a right channel update signal ZR according to the rotation angle θ. In this embodiment, under the condition that the virtual sound source S is unknown, the left channel virtual signal SL and the right channel virtual signal SR are obtained, and then the right channel virtual signal SR is derived as the left channel update signal ZL and the right channel update signal ZR according to the rotation of the user.

More specifically, step S140 includes steps S141-S142. in step S141, the updating position calculator 141 of the second conversion unit 140 obtains the updated position of the virtual sound source S relative to the user ' S virtual sound source according to the rotation angle θ. the updated position of the virtual sound source comprises the updated angle θ L ' of the th virtual speaker S1 relative to the user ' S , , and the updated angle θ R ' of the second virtual speaker S2 relative to the user ' S . for example, the updated position calculator 141 obtains the updated angle θ L ' of the th virtual speaker and the updated angle θ R ' according to the following equations (2) and (3).

θL'=θL-θ……………………………………….(2)

θR'=θR-θ……………………………………….(3)
