• record and/or edit secondary audio over part or all of original audio when the original audio is recorded in both the first audio and the second audio, the recording and/or editing of the secondary audio over part or all of the original audio being selectable between the first audio and the second audio, and
• record the first state information capable of indicating and distinguishing between a state representing that the first audio is original audio and a state representing that the first audio is secondary audio recorded over part or all of the original audio in the basic unit information of the first audio, and
• record the second state information capable of indicating and distinguishing between a state representing that the second audio is original audio, a state representing that the second audio is secondary audio recorded over part or all of the original audio, a state representing that the second audio is dummy audio which is the same as the first audio, and a state representing that the second audio is the secondary audio recorded over part or all of the dummy audio in the basic unit information of the second audio.
