Abstract

See full text

An audio apparatus includes a controller configured to set one of operation units as a master and another as a slave, and to cooperatively operate the slave operation unit while maintaining the level difference with the master operation unit. When an operation value of one of the operation units reaches the maximum or the minimum, the controller stores a level difference at that point in a memory, temporarily cancels the cooperative operation between the operation unit and the master operation unit, and allows for operation of the master operation unit and an operation unit that has not reached the maximum or the minimum. When the master operation unit is operated in a reverse direction and the level difference between the master operation unit and the operation unit matches the level difference stored in the memory, the controller restores the cooperative operation between the operation unit and the master operation unit.
