A document scan apparatus comprises a document scanner unit 1 which scans a document by illuminating the document with light, a feed path 10 which extends from a document stack portion 4 to a document discharge portion 8 through the document scan portion 7 of the document scan unit 1, driving units 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 which drive the document on the document path and document size detection units 23 and 24. The document size detection units 23 and 24 detect the document size during the document is carried by the driving units 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20. Then, the documents 4 are fed to the document scan position 7 without passing the document discharge portion 8.
摘要:
Automatic accompaniment performance data for a plurality of sections of a musical piece are stored. One of the plurality of sections is designated. Automatic accompaniment performance data for the designated one section from the automatic performance data for the plurality of sections is read out to play automatic accompaniment performance. Automatic accompaniment performance data for another section is used in place of the automatic accompaniment performance data for the designated one section if the automatic accompaniment performance data for the designated on section is not stored.
摘要:
In a memory, there are stored a plurality of first automatic performance data and a plurality of second automatic performance data. Also, first note-conversion-related information is stored separately in corresponding relations to the individual first automatic performance data. Second note-conversion-related information is stored as information common to the second automatic performance data. In executing an automatic performance, the first and second automatic performance data are read out in accordance with the sequence of the performance so as to reproduce sounds based on note data contained in the read-out automatic performance data. During that time, notes of the first automatic performance data are converted in accordance with the first note-conversion-related information read out in correspondence with the first automatic performance data, while notes of the second automatic performance data are converted in accordance with the common second note-conversion-related information. Where automatic performance sounds are generatable in a plurality of channels, the note conversion process may be executed by processing automatic performance data to be generated in some of the channels as the first automatic performance data and automatic performance data to be generated in the other channels as the second automatic performance data.
摘要:
A data set including data representing volume levels of an original sound and of an effect-imparted sound that has been set by a first musical instrument is transmitted to a second musical instrument. If any effect corresponding to the transmitted effect volume level data is not achievable by the second musical instrument, the second musical instrument modifies the original sound volume level in accordance with the effect volume level data, to thereby control a total volume balance. When tone color designating information is transmitted from the first instrument to the second instrument and tone color designated by the information is achieved by the second instrument, data representing a tone color group having been achieved by the second instrument is stored. Then, when any tone color group not achievable by the second instrument is designated, the designated tone color group is replaced with the stored tone color group.
摘要:
A keyboard unit for an electronic musical instrument is constructed by a plurality of keys, a key frame, a plurality of key guides and a pressure sensor. On the key frame, a plurality of keys are arranged such that each of them can freely rotate about the predetermined fulcrum point. The key guides are provided on the key frame, while each of the key guides supports each of the keys such that each of the keys can slide along guide surfaces of each of the key guides when the key is depressed. The pressure sensor is provided at the guide surface of the key guide. This pressure sensor senses the pressure applied thereto in a lateral direction corresponding to a disposing direction of the keys in the keyboard unit when the key is depressed. When the key is moved in the lateral direction while being depressed down, the pressure sensor senses the pressure applied to the key in the lateral direction so that the predetermined musical parameter (e.g., tone pitch) of the musical tone to be generated is controlled responsive to the sensed pressure. The pressure sensor can be made by use of the pressure-sensitive rubber or pressure-sensitive ink, of which resistance is altered responsive to the pressure applied to it.
摘要:
Polycrystalline silicon which is provided within a trench for isolating a plurality of bipolar transistors from each other is electrically connected to the collector of one of the bipolar transistor. Since the trench for isolation can also be used to lead out the collector electrode, the required area is minimized. Thus, the arrangement is effective in creasing the integration density.
摘要:
A keyboard musical instrument includes a plurality of keys mounted on a casing in juxtaposed relation. Each of the keys has a retaining portion engageable with a key stop portion on the casing to limit the upward movement of the key. A resilient leaf is formed integral with each key and extends rearwardly therefrom. The resilient leaf nomally urges each key into its raised position. The resilient leaf has an engaging section at its rear portion. The engaging section is detachably retained in a retaining groove formed on the casing. A guide surface is formed on the casing immediately adjacent to and forwardly of the retaining groove for facilitating the insertion of the engaging section into the retaining groove.
摘要:
An information processing apparatus includes a connection unit, a processing execution unit, a setting unit, and a controller. The connection unit is capable of connecting input apparatuses that output operation information for executing an operation for an image displayed on a screen. The processing execution unit is capable of executing processing corresponding to the operation information on the image. The setting unit sets one of the input apparatuses as a main input apparatus, and sets the other input apparatuses as secondary input apparatuses. The controller performs control such that execution of the processing for the image by the processing execution unit based on the operation information from the input apparatus set as the main input apparatus is validated, and execution of the processing for the image by the processing execution unit based on the operation information from the input apparatuses set as the secondary input apparatuses is invalidated.
