ABSTRACT:
An audio processing method utilized to generate an audio stream. An audio frame includes N frequency subbands. An Ith frequency subband among the N frequency subbands includes M audio samples and has an Ith psychoacoustic masking value. First, an Ith offset of the Ith frequency subband is calculated. Then, the Ith psychoacoustic masking value and the Ith offset are inputted into a projection formula to generate an Ith projection value. According to the Ith projection value and a limit range, an Ith scale factor is determined. Subsequently, the M audio samples in the Ith frequency subband are adjusted according to the Ith scale factor.
