    摘要: An electronic musical instrument has an effect adder circuit for adding sound effect which is controlled by coefficients for filtering operations and amplitude control. The instrument also has a smoothing circuit for smoothly changing a coefficient to a target value by interpolating between the coefficient current value and the coefficient target value to be updated. Smoothing is implemented by repeatedly adding or subtracting a given value to or from the coefficient current value until it reaches the coefficient target value. The precision of the smoothing coefficient depends on the word length of the coefficient current value so that the word length of the coefficient target value can be smaller than that of the coefficient current value. The effect adder circuit and smoothing circuit are independently provided to operate in parallel.

    摘要: An electronic musical instrument incorporates at least two tone signal outputs and controls sound image localization of musical tones in accordance with localization data by changing the levels of at least first and second tone signals provided, respectively, to the tone signal outputs. The instrument includes a tone signal generator for generating a generated tone signal and an output control data production circuit receiving the localization data and providing tone signal volume data and a selection signal. A tone signal output level control receives the generated tone signal and provides the first and second tone signals to the tone signal output. The tone signal output level control has a multiplier for altering the generated tone signal responsive to said volume data to provide one of the first and second tone signals. The tone signal output level control provides a signal corresponding to the generated tone signal unaltered by any multiplication as the other of the first and second tone signals. The tone signal output level control has a pair of selectors responsive to the selection signal for providing one of the first and second tone signals to one of the tone signal outputs and for providing the other of the first and second tone signals to the other of the tone signal outputs, thereby to control sound image localization of the musical sounds of the electronic musical instrument.

    摘要: Digital waveform data stored in a waveform memory is read out in response to the ON/OFF operations of key switches such as a keyboard of an electronic musical instrument. The waveform data is passed through a low-pass filter, then subjected to amplitude envelope processing such as attack, decay, release, and the like. The processed waveform data is D/A-converted to output it as a tone signal. A look-up table that stores resonant frequency data and resonance sharpness data (quality factor) of a filter in correspondence with the touch (operation strength or key-ON velocity) of the switch operation at, e.g., the keyboard is used. The resonant frequency and resonance sharpness data are read out from the table in correspondence with the touch data of the keyboard operation to control filter characteristics such as a cutoff frequency, roll-off or slope, and the like, by coefficient data to the filter.
