    摘要: An apparatus is to assist an unskilled player in playing a musical instrument by detecting the quantity of the player's manipulation against the instrument, modifying the detected manipulation quantity with reference to a recommended manipulation to a degree according to a given assistance coefficient, and actuating the instrument with the modified manipulation quantity. For a brass instrument, the apparatus comprises an embouchure sensor and a breath pressure sensor to detect the embouchure and the breath pressure of the player as he/she plays the brass instrument. The detected embouchure and breath pressure are then modified with reference to a recommended embouchure and breath pressure weighted by a given assistance coefficient. The apparatus actuates the brass instrument based on the modified embouchure and breath pressure.

    摘要: A tone control device applied to an electronic wind instrument realizes an octave-changeover-blowing technique in which the same note is produced with different octaves respectively by use of the same fingering state, thus increasing controllable ranges with regard to the tone volume, tone color, and tone pitch. A plurality of flow sensors are arranged in proximity to an edge with which a jet flow caused by blowing air into a blow hole of a lip plate collides within a tube of a wind instrument controller simulating an air-reed instrument. The flow sensors are horizontally arranged to detect a jet width, thus controlling the tone volume; and the flow sensors are vertically arranged to detect a jet eccentricity or a jet thickness, thus controlling the tone color. Ascending or descending of the tone pitch by octaves is controlled by use of the flow sensor and a jet length sensor.

    摘要: Performance event data designating rendition style modules are supplied in order of time. When a given performance event data at a given time is to be processed in accordance with the supplied performance event data, another performance event data related to one or more events, following the given performance event data, is obtained in advance of a predetermined original time position of the other performance event daata. Control data corresponding to a rendition style module designated by at least one of the given performance event data and the other performance event data obtained in advance is generated on the basis of the given and the other performance event data, and a waveform corresponding to the designated rendition style module is synthesized on the basis of the control data. Characteristic of at least one of preceding and succeeding rendition style modules is modified on the basis of trailing end information of the preceding rendition style module and leading end information of the succeeding rendition style module. When rendition style designation data, including information designating a rendition style module and parameters for controlling the rendition style module, is lacking in a necessary parameter, the lacking parameter is filled with a predetermined standard parameter.

    摘要: In a music and graphic apparatus, a performance input device provides performance information effective to control generation of a music sound. A timbre input device provides timbre information effective to specify a timbre of the music sound. A sound source is operative based on the timbre information to simulate an acoustic instrument capable of creating the specified timbre. The sound source is responsive to the performance information to generate the music sound as if voiced by the acoustic instrument with the specified timbre. A model image generator generates a model image graphically representing at least a part of the acoustic instrument. A dynamic image generator is operative according to the performance information for generating a dynamic image graphically representing an operation of the acoustic instrument. A graphic synthesizer composes the model image and the dynamic image with each other so as to dynamically model the operation of the acoustic instrument in synchronization to the generation of the music sound.

    摘要: When playing a wind instrument such as a clarinet, noises are inevitably or intentionally generated under effect of a turbulent flow contained in an air-pressure wave propagated through a resonance tube of the wind instrument. In response to an accurate simulation of a noise behavior, particularly, a behavior of the turbulent flow contained in the air-pressure wave, a musical tone synthesizing apparatus artificially produces a noise signal by use of a white-noise signal having the predetermined uniform spectral distribution. Herein, frequency characteristic and amplitude characteristic of this noise signal are controlled to be varied in response to an excitation signal which is created responsive to performance information representing the breath pressure applied to a mouthpiece of the wind instrument. This excitation signal is delayed by the predetermined delay time while it is circulating through a loop circuit. In addition, the signal circulating through the loop circuit is convoluted with the noise signal so as to produce a musical tone signal. Then, the musical tones with desirable noises are produced on the basis of this musical tone signal. Thus, the musical tone synthesizing apparatus well simulates the sound-and-noise-generating mechanism of the wind instrument.

    摘要: In order to simplify the input operations for the simulation of the non-electronic musical instrument such as the wind instrument, input values are visually displayed on a display screen of a display unit. Herein, by operating an input device such as a keyboard, a mouse, a light pen and the like, a tube shape, position and size of a tone hole of the wind instrument is visually drawn on the display screen in accordance with the predetermined plotting programs. In order to simplify calculations required for the computer simulation, the tube shape of the wind instrument, such as a conical shape, is divided into plural portions, each of which is simulated by another simple shape, such as a cylindrical shape. Then, parameters defining the simulated shape of each portion of the tube shape are generated in accordance with the predetermined algorithm, and these parameters are memorized in a memory. When performing a music by use of a wind-instrument-type performance input device, the corresponding parameters are automatically read from the memory so that simulated sounds of the wind instrument can be generated from the electronic musical instrument.
