Abstract:
An information processing device includes at least one processor that executes a program stored in a memory. The processor executes processing of acquiring first information corresponding to a first musical sound and second information corresponding to a second musical sound generated after the first musical sound, acquiring a first occurrence probability, which is an occurrence probability of a special playing style with respect to an elapsed time since an end of a predetermined operation, and a second occurrence probability, which is an occurrence probability of the special playing style with respect to an elapsed time after the first musical sound is generated until the second musical sound is generated, according to the first and second information, and determining whether to generate the second musical sound with any one of a normal playing style and the special playing style, according to the first and second occurrence probability.
Abstract:
An electronic musical instrument includes a sound source LSI to generate a musical sound using a RAM that retains waveform data that has been selectively read from a plurality of waveforms stored in a large-capacity flash memory, and smoothly executes transfer of additional waveform data from the flash memory to the RAM when the requisite waveform data is not retained in the RAM during the performance. Performance data is generated by a sequencer, a prescribed delay time is applied to the performance data by an event time generator and an event delay buffer so as to provide for sufficient time for the transfer of the additional waveform if such transfer is needed. A musical sound is generated by an event buffer and a sound source driver on the basis of the delayed performance data.

An electronic instrument includes a plurality of music-playing operators which designates pitch data in accordance with a music-playing operation and at least one processor which instructs a sound source which generates music sounds to emit sounds, in which the at least one processor, in a case where the music-playing operation meets a first instruction condition, instructs the sound source to emit the sound in a first sound emission form which corresponds to pitch data which meets the first instruction condition which is designated in accordance with the music-playing operation, and in a case where the music-playing operation meets a second instruction condition which is different from the first instruction condition, instructs the sound source to emit a sound which is different from the sound which is emitted in the first sound-emission form, that is, in a second sound-emission form which corresponds to pitch data which meets the second instruction condition which is designated in accordance with the music-playing operation.
Abstract:
When transferring waveform data from a waveform region in a high-capacity flash memory to a waveform buffer in a RAM, first, whether a non-ring buffer region that can receive the waveform data can be allocated in the RAM is determined, and if so, the waveform data is transferred to the allocated non-ring buffer region. If such a non-ring buffer region cannot be allocated, then whether a ring buffer region that can receive the waveform data can be allocated in the RAM is determined, and if so, the waveform data is transferred to the ring-buffer region in a ring buffer operational manner.
Abstract:
A CPU sets a first key-press pitch as a first target value; sets the immediately-preceding key-press pitch as a first starting point; emits the first key-press pitch sound therefrom with portamento toward the first target value; sets the second key-press pitch as a second target value; sets a pitch obtained by adding a pitch difference between the first and second key-press pitches to the pitch of the above-described sound as a second starting point; emits the second key-press pitch sound therefrom with portamento toward the second target value; sets the third key-press pitch as a third target value; sets a pitch obtained by adding a pitch difference between the second and third key-press pitches to the pitch of the sound being emitted with portamento toward the second target value as a third starting point; and emits the third key-press pitch sound therefrom with portamento toward the third target value.
