Abstract
A first terminal transmits first event data instructing generation of a first sound to a server. A second terminal transmits second event data instructing generation of a second sound to the server. The server transmits data including the first event data and the second event data to the first terminal. The first terminal controls generation of the first sound and the second sound, based on the data including the first event data and the second event data.
Claims7
A communication method comprising:
- transmitting, by a first terminal and to a server, first event data instructing generation of a first sound;
- transmitting, by a second terminal and to the server, second event data instructing generation of a second sound;
- transmitting, by the server and to the first terminal, data including the first event data and the second event data;
- controlling, by the first terminal, generation of the first sound and the second sound based on the data including the first event data and the second event data;
- and
- transmitting, by the server, a program to the first terminal and the second terminal,
- wherein the first event data includes an instruction to cause the first sound to be produced at a first elapsed time of the program, and the second event data includes an instruction to cause the second sound to be produced at a second elapsed time of the program, and
- wherein controlling the generation of the first sound and the second sound includes controlling a timing of the generation of the first sound and the second sound based on a current time of the program being played on the first terminal, the first elapsed time, and the second elapsed time.
