Summary of The Invention

In current games, the requirements for setting the sound are higher and higher, and multiple sounds may need to be played at the same time in the game, and these sounds may not only improve the pleasure of the user, but also affect the game operations of the user, for example, the footstep sound, the gunshot sound, etc. of the enemy in the competitive game. However, since the effect of playing sound is different between the earphone and the speaker of the terminal device, the playing effect of the earphone is better than that of the speaker. Further, when designing a game, it cannot be judged whether the user selects the earphone or the speaker to play the sound in the practical game running process, or the user can continuously replace the earphone or the speaker, so that when playing the game sound by using the speaker of the terminal device, the user often cannot completely experience the sound effect originally designed by the game designer, and even often cannot hear some sound information in the game.

In order to solve the above problems, the present application provides a method for adjusting game sound, which specifically includes:

Determining a sound playing mode of a target game to be adjusted, wherein the sound playing mode comprises a loudspeaker mode; responding to the sound playing mode of the target game as a loudspeaker mode, and determining the target number of sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game; and adjusting the sound of the target game based on the target number and the preset limit number, and eliminating the sound interference in the game by limiting the number of playable sound sources of the loud speakers, so that the definition of the sound heard by the user is ensured, and the effect of being less or more is achieved. Meanwhile, confusion of understanding generated when the human ear receives a large amount of different sounds simultaneously can be reduced. In addition, when the terminal equipment is used for external playing, the hearing resolution is reduced due to the interference of the external noise and the influence of the distance between the mobile phone and the human ear. According to the embodiment of the application, the sounding number of the loudspeaker is actively reduced by presetting the limiting number, the interference among sounds generated by various sound sources in the game is reduced, and the understanding difficulty of human ears on a large number of different sounds can be reduced. Although the sound played on the surface is reduced, in practice, the sound information that the human ear can acquire is clearer and more accurate. If a large amount of sound is crowded together and played in a mode of larger volume, the hearing fatigue of the human ear is caused, and the user tends to actively turn off the externally played sound and only relies on the picture to acquire information.

Having described the basic principles of the present application, various non-limiting embodiments of the application are described in detail below.

Application scene overview

In some specific application scenarios, the method for adjusting game sound of the present application can be applied to various game systems. As an example, referring to fig. 1, the application scenario includes at least one server 102 and at least one terminal 101. Terminal devices include, but are not limited to, desktop computers, mobile phones, mobile computers, tablet computers, media players, smart wearable device televisions, personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) or other electronic devices capable of performing the functions described above, and the like.

The server may be a server providing various services. In particular, the server may be configured to provide background services for applications running on the terminal. Optionally, in some implementations, the method for adjusting game sound provided by the embodiment of the present application may be executed by a terminal device or a server. The server may be hardware or software.

Referring to fig. 2, a schematic diagram of another application scenario of the embodiment of the present application, in which a target game is run in a terminal device (mobile phone), and sound of the target game may be played through an earphone connected to the mobile phone, or may be played through a speaker of the mobile phone. The specific mode of playing the game sound can be determined according to the selection operation of the user, and when the user selects to play the game sound through the speaker of the mobile phone, the game sound can be adjusted by the adjusting method of the game sound provided by the embodiment of the application, so that the quality of the sound played outside the speaker is improved. Alternatively, the earphone and the mobile phone may be connected by wired or wireless, which is not limited.

A method for adjusting game sound according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application will be described below in conjunction with a specific application scenario. It should be noted that the above application scenario is only shown for the convenience of understanding the spirit and principle of the present application, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited in any way. Rather, embodiments of the application may be applied to any scenario where applicable.

It should be understood that, although the steps in the flowcharts of fig. 3 to 6 are sequentially shown as indicated by arrows, these steps are not necessarily sequentially performed in the order indicated by the arrows. The steps are not strictly limited to the order of execution unless explicitly recited herein, and the steps may be executed in other orders. Moreover, at least some of the steps of fig. 3-6 may include multiple sub-steps or stages that are not necessarily performed at the same time, but may be performed at different times, nor does the order in which the sub-steps or stages are performed necessarily occur in sequence, but may be performed alternately or alternately with at least a portion of other steps or sub-steps or stages of other steps.

Exemplary method

Referring to fig. 3, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for adjusting a game sound, and an execution subject of the method for adjusting a game sound may be, but is not limited to, a server or a terminal device. The method comprises the following steps:

S101, determining a sound playing mode of a target game to be adjusted, wherein the sound playing mode comprises a loudspeaker mode.

In specific implementation, the target game to be adjusted may be any game with sound, for example, the target game may be a shooting game or a multi-person online fighting game, which is not limited. The sound play modes of the target game to be adjusted may include a speaker mode and a headphone mode. Since the sound playing effect of the earphone is different from that of the speaker, when the game sound is adjusted, the sound playing mode of the target game to be adjusted needs to be determined first, and then the sound is correspondingly adjusted according to the sound playing mode.

In some embodiments, when determining the sound playing mode of the target game to be adjusted, the method may be determined according to whether the terminal device running the target game is connected to the earphone, and when the terminal device running the target game is not connected to the earphone, the sound playing mode of the target game is indicated to be the speaker mode, and when the terminal device running the target game is connected to the earphone, the sound playing mode of the target game is indicated to be the earphone mode. Alternatively, the connection between the terminal device and the earphone may be a wired connection or a wireless connection by bluetooth or the like, which is not limited. Optionally, in order to further ensure accuracy of determining the sound playing mode, the system may query the background to determine whether the terminal device running the target game plays the sound through the headphones, if the terminal device plays the sound through the headphones, it indicates that the sound playing mode of the current target game is the headphone mode, and if not, it indicates that the sound playing mode of the current target game is the speaker mode.

Since the speaker of the terminal device (e.g., a mobile phone) is located farther from the human ear, the energy absorbed by the air is lost during the sound propagation from the speaker to the human ear. The earphone directly sends sound into the ear, has the shielding effect to other environmental sounds, and the scene that the recreation was experienced often is not quiet scene, and the sound of speaker broadcast can receive the shielding and the interference of environmental sound, therefore, the effect of general earphone broadcast sound is better than the effect of speaker broadcast sound. Therefore, the embodiment of the application mainly adjusts the sound played by the loudspeaker.

Considering that the effect of playing sound by the headphones is better than that of playing sound by the speakers, in some embodiments, when the sound playing mode of the target game is determined to be the headphone mode, the sound of all the sound sources in the target game may be directly played, that is, the number of sound sources is not required to be limited. Optionally, in some embodiments, when the sound playing mode of the target game is determined to be the earphone mode, the preset limit number may be increased first, and then the sound of the target game may be adjusted according to the increased preset limit number and the target number of the sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game.

S102, determining the target number of sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game in response to the sound playing mode of the target game being a loudspeaker mode.

In practical implementation, the effect of playing sound by the earphone is considered to be better than that of playing sound by the loudspeaker, and when playing game sound by the loudspeaker, the sound resolution is reduced due to the interference of the external noise and the influence of the distance between the loudspeaker and the human ear. Therefore, when determining that the sound playing mode of the target game is the speaker mode, in the embodiment of the present application, it is necessary to further determine the target number of sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game. Alternatively, the target number of sound sources may vary according to the scene change in the target game, for example, when the user controls the controlled virtual character to move from a place with more virtual objects to a place with fewer virtual objects in the game scene, the target number of sound sources may be significantly reduced. Alternatively, the sound in the game may include background music, sound produced by natural virtual landscapes in the game scene (e.g., river, waterfall, stormwater, etc.), system cues, etc.

S103, adjusting the sound of the target game based on the target number and a preset limit number.

In the specific implementation, when the target number of the sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game is obtained, the target number can be compared with the preset limiting number, and the number of the sound sources which can be played in the sound of the target game is limited through the preset limiting number, so that the recognition degree and the definition of the user on the heard sound are improved by actively reducing the sounding number in the playing process.

It should be noted that, since the number of sounds (sound sources) that can be simultaneously heard by the user is the maximum upper limit, when the number of sounds in the target game is greater than the maximum upper limit of the number of sounds that can be simultaneously heard by the user, not only are all the sounds not simultaneously heard by the user, but also the respective sounds affect each other, thereby affecting the clarity of the sounds heard by the user. In addition, in general, the number of sounds simultaneously heard by the user through the speaker is smaller than the number of sounds simultaneously heard through the earphone, and in order to improve the quality and richness of game sounds for game designers, the number of sounds of many games is referred to as earphone play, and therefore, when the sound play mode of the target game is the speaker mode, in many cases, the target number of sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game is larger than the maximum number of sounds that the user can simultaneously hear through the speaker. On the basis, the target quantity of the sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game is limited by presetting the limiting quantity, so that the influence among the sound sources can be effectively avoided, and the definition of the sound heard by the user is further improved.

It should be noted that, the preset limit number indicates the number of sound sources that can be played at the same time at the maximum when the current target game plays the sound through the speaker mode. The specific preset limit number may be set to a fixed value and obtained from a test experiment. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the preset limit number may be set to 20. In order to provide more accurate personalized services for different game users, the preset limit number can be set according to age or gender information of the users, namely, different preset limit numbers can be set for users at different ages, and two different preset limit numbers can be set according to gender, namely, two different preset limit numbers of men and women can be respectively set.

In some embodiments, the adjusting the sound of the target game in step S103 based on the target number and the preset limit number specifically includes: determining a target sound source to be eliminated from sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game based on the preset limit quantity; and eliminating the target sound source from the sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game. Optionally, the target sound sources to be eliminated are determined from the sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game according to the preset limit number, and the target sound sources to be eliminated of the preset limit number may be determined randomly from the sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game, for example, the target number of the sound sources corresponding to the sound of the current target game is 50, and the preset limit number is 20, and then 30 target sound sources to be eliminated may be determined randomly from the 50 sound sources.

To more accurately exclude the listening impact of ambient sounds on the user, in some embodiments, referring to fig. 5, the step of determining the preset limit number includes:

S301, acquiring the number of interference sound sources in the environment where the terminal equipment running the target game is located.

S302, determining the preset limit number based on the number of the interference sound sources and a preset maximum listening number.

In particular, considering that the number of maximum sound sources that the user can listen to at the same time is generally fixed, when the number of sound sources that the user can hear in the external environment is greater, it is obvious that the number of sound sources that the user can hear from the speaker will decrease, and if only the number of sound sources provided in the target game is considered and is obviously affected by the sound generated by the environment in which the user is located, in summary, the preset limit number may be set to a dynamic value, and when the preset limit number is specifically determined, the number of interference sound sources in the environment in which the terminal device running the target game is located may be obtained first, and then the preset limit number is determined according to the number of interference sound sources and the preset maximum listening number, i.e., the preset limit number may be obtained by subtracting the number of interference sound sources from the preset maximum listening number. Alternatively, the preset maximum number of listening may be obtained experimentally, and in the above-described embodiment, the preset limit number may be set according to age or sex information of the user.

In order to obtain the number of the interference sound sources more accurately, in some embodiments, the sound sources corresponding to all the sounds in the environment where the target game is located may be obtained through the terminal device running the target game; and then determining the interference sound sources from the sound sources corresponding to all the sounds, and determining the quantity of all the interference sound sources. Alternatively, sound sources in an environment where the volume is greater than a preset threshold may be determined as interfering sound sources. Alternatively, in some embodiments, all acquired sound sources in the environment may be determined as interfering sound sources, which is not limited.

Referring to fig. 4, a flow chart of another method for adjusting game sound according to an embodiment of the application is shown, the method includes the following steps:

s201, determining a sound playing mode of a target game to be adjusted, wherein the sound playing mode comprises a loudspeaker mode.

S202, determining the target number of sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game in response to the sound playing mode of the target game being a loudspeaker mode.

S203, determining a target sound source to be eliminated from sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game based on the preset limit number in response to the target number being larger than the preset limit number.

S204, eliminating the target sound source from the sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game.

In the implementation, whether the terminal setting of the target game is connected with the earphone or not can be used for judging the sound playing mode of the target game, if the terminal setting is connected with the earphone, the sound playing mode is determined to be the earphone mode, otherwise, the sound playing mode is determined to be the loudspeaker mode. When the sound playing mode in response to the target game is the speaker mode, further determining a target number of sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game, for example, the target number may be 50, and then determining 30 target sound sources to be eliminated from the sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game according to a preset limit number when the target number 50 is greater than the preset limit number 20, and eliminating the determined target sound sources from the sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game.

In order to determine the target sound source to be eliminated more accurately, in some embodiments, determining the target sound source to be eliminated from the sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game based on the preset limit number specifically includes:

determining the priority of each sound source corresponding to the sound of the target game;

and determining a target sound source to be eliminated from the sound sources based on the priority and the preset limit quantity.

In particular, considering that the importance of different sound sources in the game is different, if some sound sources are eliminated randomly, some important sound sources are likely to be eliminated, so that the priority of each sound source can be further referred to in determining the target sound source to be eliminated. Alternatively, the priority of each sound source indicates the importance level of each sound source, and the specific priority can be set according to different game requirements.

In some embodiments, the priority of the sound source may be determined according to the kind of each sound in the game, for example, the priority of winning guidance voices may be set to 1 (highest), the priority of calling for help voices by the player to 2 (next highest), the priority of transition sound effects and guidance voices to 3, and the priority of various action sound effects of the game avatar to 4 in the order of priority from high to low.

In some embodiments, determining the target sound source to be eliminated from the sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game based on the preset limit number specifically includes:

Determining a first sound source with the volume smaller than a preset volume from sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game;

Determining a target sound source to be eliminated from the first sound sources based on the preset limit number in response to the difference between the target number and the number of the first sound sources being less than or equal to the preset limit number;

Determining priorities of the sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game in response to the difference between the target number and the number of the first sound sources being greater than the preset limit number;

Determining other sound sources except the first sound source from sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game;

And determining a target sound source to be eliminated from the other sound sources based on the priority and the preset limit quantity.

In particular, it is considered that when the sound playing mode of the target game is the speaker mode, particularly low sounds, for example, sounds lower than-40 db, cannot be played for the speaker, so that when determining the target sound source to be eliminated, the first sound sources with the volumes lower than the preset volumes may be excluded. Alternatively, the preset volume may be obtained according to an experimental test. After the first sound sources with the sound volume smaller than the preset sound volume are eliminated, whether the target number of the sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game after all the first sound sources are eliminated is further judged to be larger than the preset limit number or not, namely whether the difference value between the target number and the number of the first sound sources is larger than the preset limit number or not is determined, when the difference value between the target number and the number of the first sound sources is smaller than or equal to the preset limit number, the condition that only the first sound sources with the sound volume smaller than the preset sound volume are eliminated is explained, and the sound source number limit can be met, so that the target sound sources to be eliminated can be determined from the first sound sources directly according to the preset limit number, and the target sound sources can be determined randomly from all the first sound sources according to the preset limit number. When the difference between the target number and the number of the first sound sources is greater than the preset limit number, it is stated that the single first sound source with the volume smaller than the preset volume is eliminated, and the sound source number limit cannot be met, and further the target sound sources to be eliminated need to be determined from other sound sources except the first sound source, so that the target number of the sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game after the target sound sources are eliminated can meet the limit of the preset limit number.

Considering that speakers of different types of devices are different, and some high-end devices are equipped with a special audio processing chip and high-quality speakers, so that better sound effect experience is provided, therefore, the minimum volume that speakers of different types of devices can play may be quite different, in order to avoid errors caused by the difference, in some embodiments, the preset volume may also be determined according to model information of terminal devices running a target game, in particular implementation, the minimum play volume of devices of multiple types may be determined in advance according to experiments, and then the preset volume corresponding to the target game is determined according to the corresponding relation between the minimum play volume and multiple types.

In some embodiments, determining the priority of each sound source corresponding to the sound of the target game specifically includes:

Determining the distance between each sound source and the controlled virtual object; wherein the controlled virtual object is a virtual object controlled by a user in the target game;

the priority of each sound source is determined based on the distance of the sound source from the controlled virtual character.

In particular, since the user generally takes a controlled virtual object as his or her own substituted character in the game, the sound in the game perceived by the user should coincide with the controlled virtual object. When sound sources corresponding to a plurality of sound sources are included in a game, sound corresponding to a sound source closer to a controlled virtual object should be heard and heard more easily, and therefore, the priority of each sound source can be determined according to the distance of the sound source from the controlled virtual character, and when the distance of the sound source from the controlled virtual object is farther, the priority of the corresponding sound source is lower.

Determining, from the individual sound sources, a hostile sound source generated by a hostile virtual object; the hostile virtual object is a virtual object which can hurt a virtual object controlled by a user in the target game;

and determining the priority of the hostile sound source based on the damage attribute information of the hostile virtual object.

In particular, in consideration of the fact that in games, particularly in competitive games, the sound of the game may affect the specific operation of the user, for example, when the line of sight of the user does not appear in the hostile virtual object, the position and other information of the hostile virtual object can be judged through the sound emitted by the hostile virtual object, and the pre-judgment or operation is performed in advance, when the hostile virtual object is a plurality of hostile virtual objects, it is necessary to further determine which hostile virtual objects are more important from the plurality of virtual hostile objects, and for the game user, the damage that the hostile virtual object can generate belongs to a priority concern. In summary, in determining the priority of the hostile sound source generated by the hostile virtual object, it may be determined according to the damage attribute information of the hostile virtual object, where the higher the damage attribute of the hostile virtual object is, the higher the priority of the hostile sound source generated by the hostile virtual object is.

Because the different terminal device speakers may have different quality and size, which may result in a larger difference in play-out effect of the game sound effects, in some embodiments, after the sound playing mode in response to the target game is the speaker mode, the method further includes: acquiring target model information of terminal equipment running the target game; and adjusting the sound of the target game based on the target model information.

Referring to fig. 6, a flow chart of a method for adjusting game sound according to another embodiment of the present application is shown, where the method includes:

s401, determining a sound playing mode of a target game to be adjusted, wherein the sound playing mode comprises a loudspeaker mode.

S402, obtaining target model information of terminal equipment running the target game in response to the sound playing mode of the target game being a loudspeaker mode.

S403, adjusting the sound of the target game based on the target model information.

In the implementation, due to the fact that the speaker parameters of different terminal devices are different, the external playing effect cannot be optimized through universal mixing adjustment. Therefore, in this embodiment, when it is determined that the sound playing mode of the target game is the speaker mode, the target model information of the terminal device running the target game is further acquired, and generally the speaker parameters of the terminal devices of the same model are the same, so that the sound of the target game can be adjusted according to the model information of the terminal device. Alternatively, when the sound of the target game is adjusted according to the model information of the terminal device, the sound defect information of the devices corresponding to the various models may be determined in advance through experiments, and the sound defect information may be the sound defect of the whole device, for example, the sound is generally higher or lower when the speaker of the device of a certain model plays the sound, and then the whole volume of the sound of the target game may be adjusted appropriately in specific cases. Or the loudspeaker of a certain type of equipment can generate noise when the volume of sound exceeds a certain volume, and the maximum volume of the sound of the target game can be limited in a targeted way. In some embodiments, the sound defect information of the device corresponding to the different models determined through experiments may include a first audio range in which the device has a playing defect and a second audio range in which the device does not have a playing condition. The first audio range indicates that the speaker of the device may be defective in playing sound that is within the first audio range. The second audio range indicates that the speaker of the device is unable to play sound that is within the first audio range. It should be noted that, the playing defect mainly means that although the playing device can play a sound in a certain audio range, the playing effect is poor, and the sound is generally partially lost compared with the original sound. For example, if an acoustic sound has 30 db at a certain frequency and is played by a device, the acoustic sound has only 25 db at the frequency, which indicates that the device has a play defect at the frequency. The absence of the play condition mainly means that the device cannot play the sound in a certain audio frequency range due to the hardware condition, that is, the audio frequency of the current sound to be played exceeds the normal play range of the device. For example, when the audio range of the played sound of a certain device is 100hz to 200hz, and the device is required to play the sound of 20hz to 50hz, it may indicate that the sound does not have a playing condition for the audio range.

In some embodiments, adjusting the sound of the target game based on the target model information specifically includes:

Determining a first audio range with a playing defect corresponding to the target model information; wherein the different first audio frequency ranges correspond to different model information;

Gain adjustment is performed on the sound of the target game based on the first audio range.

In specific implementation, considering that the sound playing effects of the speakers of the terminal devices with different models are different, particularly, the playing performances of the speakers of the terminal devices with different frequencies are different, a first audio range corresponding to each model information can be determined in advance according to experiments, then after the target model information of the terminal device is determined, a first audio range with playing defects corresponding to the target model information can be determined, and the sound of the target game can be subjected to gain adjustment according to the first audio range. Referring to fig. 7, a frequency response curve of a certain terminal device is shown, where a dashed curve is an original game sound, a solid curve is a sound actually played by the terminal device, and it can be seen that a sound defect appears obviously at two frequencies a to B and C to D, so that a gain adjustment can be performed on sounds in the two audio ranges in a targeted manner. Optionally, the specific gain means is not limited, and the intensity of the sound in the corresponding audio frequency range can be directly increased, and the gain can also be performed by the tuning plug-in related technologies such as EQ. Referring to fig. 8, which is an effect diagram of the game sound after adjustment, wherein the dotted line in fig. 8 is the sound after adjustment, and the solid line is the sound before adjustment, it can be seen that the solid line in fig. 8 is significantly higher than the dotted line, thereby achieving a gain to the sound.

Determining a second audio range which corresponds to the target model information and does not have playing conditions; wherein the different second audio frequency ranges correspond to different model information;

An audio play range of sound of the target game is adjusted based on the second audio range.

In the implementation, considering that the speakers of some terminal devices cannot play the sound in certain audio ranges, if the target game includes the audio ranges that the speakers cannot play, the user cannot hear the music in the target game, and the game experience of the user is further affected, so that the audio ranges of the sounds that cannot be played need to be modified, so that the speakers of the device currently running the target game can play the sounds. For example, the second audio frequency range without playing condition corresponding to the certain target model information is 100hz to 200hz, that is, the speaker of the device of the current target model cannot play the audio frequency range of 100hz to 200hz, and then the audio frequency range of 100hz to 200hz can be adjusted to be within 200hz to 300hz, so that the user can be ensured to hear the game sound through the speaker. Optionally, in order to ensure that the original tone of the target game is not affected as much as possible, and to avoid that the audio frequency range is changed in a large span to cause a great difference between the game sound and the original sound, the second audio frequency range without playing conditions may be adjusted to an adjacent audio frequency range. Of course, in some embodiments, the second audio range may also be randomly adjusted to any audio range that can be played by the speaker of the current device, which is not limited.

To further enhance the user's gaming experience, in some embodiments, after the sound play mode responsive to the target game is a speaker mode, the method further comprises:

determining key sound sources belonging to a preset sound source list from all sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game;

and increasing the volume of the sound corresponding to the key sound source.

In particular, in order to further improve the game experience of the user, when the sound playing mode of the target game is the speaker mode, the sound corresponding to the key sound source may be optimized, for example, the sound volume of other hostile users most watched by the user is increased when the user is placed outside, and the sound volume of footstep sounds of other users most watched by the user is increased when the user is placed outside. Alternatively, the preset sound source list may be set as needed, which is not limited. In some embodiments, the preset sound source list may be determined according to the priorities of the respective sound sources in the target game, that is, sound sources having priorities greater than a certain level may be directly added to the preset sound source list.

In order to more precisely adjust the sounds emitted by the heavy point sound sources, when the preset sound source list is set, besides the priority of each sound source, the original sound quality of each sound source in the target game can be considered, some sound sources are important in the target game, but the sound emitted by the sound sources is high in quality, and a user can easily hear the sounds emitted by the sound sources through the loudspeaker of the device, so that any adjustment is not needed for the sounds, and if the sound is added to the preset sound source list, the memory is occupied. For example, the priority of the sounds prompting winning in the game is generally higher, but in order to draw the attention of the user, the volume of the sounds is higher, so that the sounds do not need to be further adjusted and optimized.

The method for adjusting game sound provided by the application comprises the steps of determining a sound playing mode of a target game to be adjusted, wherein the sound playing mode comprises a loudspeaker mode; responding to the sound playing mode of the target game as a loudspeaker mode, and determining the target number of sound sources corresponding to the sound of the target game; and adjusting the sound of the target game based on the target number and the preset limit number, and eliminating the sound interference in the game by limiting the number of playable sound sources of the loud speakers, so that the definition of the sound heard by the user is ensured, and the effect of being less or more is achieved. Meanwhile, the confusion of understanding generated when the ears of the user receive a large amount of different sounds can be reduced, and the influence on the game experience of the user due to the lack of the functionality of the game sounds is avoided. In addition, when the terminal equipment is used for external playing, the hearing resolution is reduced due to the interference of the external noise and the influence of the distance between the mobile phone and the human ear. According to the embodiment of the application, the sounding number of the loudspeaker is actively reduced by presetting the limiting number, the interference among sounds generated by various sound sources in the game is reduced, and the understanding difficulty of human ears on a large number of different sounds can be reduced. Although the sound played on the surface is reduced, in practice, the sound information that the human ear can acquire is clearer and more accurate. If a large amount of sound is crowded together and played in a mode of larger volume, the hearing fatigue of the human ear is caused, and the user tends to actively turn off the externally played sound and only relies on the picture to acquire information.

In addition, the application can overcome the problem of the difference of the sound of different types of equipment by making the sound mixing strategy for distinguishing models or platforms and optimizing according to the tested frequency response curve, thereby providing good game sound experience on different equipment. Meanwhile, the reality and the quality of game sound can be improved by optimizing the playing effect, so that the quality and the attractive force of the game are improved, and more players are reserved.
