摘要： An electronic musical instrument includes an ROM which stores tone color parameters for determining musical tone characteristics of musical tone signals. Operating elements are operated to create operation information for controlling the musical tone characteristics on real time basis. A tone generator circuit generates the musical tone signals, based on the cone color parameters read from the ROM and the operation information created by the operating elements. Scene memories and a RAM store the operation information created by the operating elements. The operation information is read from the scene memories or the RAM, in response to an instruction from the operator. The operation formation thus read is supplied to the tone generator circuit.

摘要： A musical tone synthesizing apparatus at least comprises two loop circuits. Each loop circuit delays an input signal thereof by a delay time corresponding to a tone-pitch period of a musical tone to be produced while circulating the input signal therethrough. When the loop circuits are connected in series, an excitation signal is applied to one loop circuit, while an output signal of one loop circuit is supplied to another loop circuit. Then, the excitation signal is mixed together with the output signals of the loop circuits, so that a musical tone signal representing a synthesized musical tone is generated. The excitation signal is generated by mixing a noise signal and a musical-tone-waveform signal. When simulating the violin sounds, the noise signal is made based on a frictional sound which is caused due to a friction between a string and a bow. Incidentally, a filter can be provided to perform a filtering operation on each of the excitation signal and the output signals of the loop circuits. Further, an overflow detecting circuit can be provided to detect an overflow event in which a signal level of the signal circulating through each loop circuit exceeds a predetermined limit value representing the maximum value of the digital data, used in the apparatus, whose number of bits is determined in advance. When the overflow event is detected, an input level of each loop circuit is automatically adjusted. incidentally, the signal level can be visually indicated by indicators such as LEDs.

摘要： In an engine provided with a variable valve mechanism which varies an operating angle of an intake valve and a lift amount thereof, when an engine operation is automatically stopped after the establishment of an idling stop condition, the operating angle of the intake valve and the lift amount thereof are varied to be smaller, so that a load of the variable valve mechanism at an engine operation restarting time is low. Then, when the engine operation restarting is requested, a first explosion pressure is obtained by performing fuel injection and ignition on a cylinder stopped in an expansion stroke, so that the engine operation is started. Further, after a first intake stroke, the operating angle of the intake valve and the lift amount thereof are increased.

摘要： Filtering is performed on original waveform to remove components of a predetermined frequency band from the waveform, and dividing positions of the original waveform data are determined on the basis of envelope levels of the filtered waveform. The dividing positions may be determined on the basis of differentiation of an envelope of the filtered waveform. Rise positions in the original waveform data are detected, and one rise position may be selected from among one or more rise positions detected within a predetermined range of the original waveform and extracted as a dividing position of the original waveform. Presumed beat positions in the original waveform may be detected, and rise positions of the original waveform may be detected within predetermined ranges corresponding to the presumed beat positions. In parallel with reproduction of automatic performance, waveform data are stored in memory along with synchronization control data indicative of relationship in processing timing between the automatic performance and the waveform data.

摘要： The intake flow velocity near the jet of a fuel injection valve is obtained on the basis of the engine rotational speed, engine intake air quantity and intake valve opening area. A crank angle position for maximum intake flow velocity is set as the timing for completion of fuel injection by the fuel injection valve. As a result, fuel injection can be reliably completed at a timing giving good fuel atomization characteristics.
