    摘要: An electronic musical apparatus for effectively displaying musical information such as notes and beats is configured using a keyboard, a visual display (e.g., liquid crystal display) and a storage device. A keyboard pattern, a bass staff and a treble staff are displayed on a screen of the visual display. Herein, the keyboard pattern is displayed at a lower base area of the screen while the bass staff is displayed at a lower left area of the screen, and the treble staff is displayed at an upper right area of the screen. In addition, a right end of the bass staff and a left end of the treble staff are located approximately in proximity to a center of the keyboard pattern which corresponds to a key of middle C note in a horizontal direction on the screen. Based on performance data stored in the storage device, keys of the keyboard pattern are respectively displayed to show a progression of notes of a tune. The notes of the tune are sequentially displayed on the bass staff and treble staff, wherein the notes are displayed in accordance with note display positions which are disposed in a direction from the lower left to the upper right on the screen. Further, timings of beats of the tune are displayed using images of hands which are displayed at a predetermined area on the screen. For example, the electronic musical apparatus displays an image of clapping hands and an image of opening hands alternatively.

    摘要: The acoustic apparatus for generating a musical tone preferably adopts a speaker system utilizing a resonator constituted by a cavity and an acoustic mass for causing the cavity to acoustically communicate with an external region or a speaker system utilizing a back-loaded horn so that frequency characteristic is improved. In a musical instrument, including a resonator, like a guitar, all or part of a body is partitioned as the cavity, and acoustic mass such as a resonance port is disposed in the cavity as needed to set a desired resonance frequency. In a musical instrument having side plates or leg portions, the resonance port or the back-loaded horn is housed in the side plates or the leg portions.

    摘要: An electronic musical instrument can be provided with a control unit capable of arbitrarily shifting a tone pitch of a key within a keyboard from its reference tone pitch. This control unit includes a plurality of pitch-bend switches to which predetermined pitch values are respectively assigned. Each of these pitch-bend switches has a shape which can be easily operated by a player with high speed. The tone pitch of each key can be incremented or decremented by the predetermined pitch value from its reference tone pitch when the switches are operated by the player.

    摘要: A performance apparatus which can realize interesting performance with game elements. Coordinates are designated in a matrix display input section, and sounding data corresponding to the designated coordinates are generated. Sounding of musical tones based on the generated sounding data is instructed. Based on the designation of coordinates, a moving route is set, and a moving ball indicating corresponding present position coordinates on the set moving route among coordinates in the matrix display input section is generated. At least when the moving ball has reached predetermined coordinates on the moving route, sounding data corresponding to the predetermined coordinates is generated, and sounding of a musical tone based on the sounding data generated in association with the predetermined coordinates is instructed.

    摘要: A musical instrument has play pistons incorporated in a trumpet-shaped housing at the upper central part in the front-and-back direction. An air vibration sensor for inputting voices is provided at the end surface on the front side of housing. When a player inputs voices into air vibration sensor simultaneously with the player's operation of play pistons, a musical tone is generated having a tone pitch that is determined by a combination of the operation of play pistons and the frequency of the voice sound signal. Rings formed of transparent or translucent resin and emitting light by energization of light-emitting elements are incorporated at the foot of play pistons. Through energization of light-emitting elements in accordance with performance data, light emission of rings guides playing. Thus, the player can easily play and practice the musical instrument, such as a trumpet, that determines the tone pitch of a musical tone in accordance with a combination of operation of a plurality of play operators.
