A method of concealing transmission error in a digital audio signal, wherein a signal that has been decoded after transmission is received, the samples decoded while the transmitted data is valid are stored, at least one short-term prediction operator and one long-term prediction operator are estimated as a function of stored valid samples, and any missing or erroneous samples in the decoder signal are generated using the estimated operators. The energy of the synthesized signal that is thus generated is controlled by means of a gain that is computed and adapted sample by sample.
