Abstract:
A sound output system according to an embodiment includes a speaker configured to output a sound according to sound data supplied to the speaker, and an operation device comprising one or more operators, a drive unit configured to drive the one or more operators based on performance data supplied to the operation device in synchronization with the sound data supplied to the speaker, and a drive control unit configured to control the drive unit. According to the output system, it is possible to faithfully reproduce a performance sound at the time of performance and to accurately reproduce a performance at the time of performance by driving at operator based on the performance sound.
Abstract:
A keyboard device includes a plurality of keys, and a keyboard driver configured to drive at least a part of the plurality of keys. The keyboard device is configured such that sound is generated based on a first sound-generating process in which the keyboard driver is configured to drive a key corresponding to a first pitch, upon receiving performance data including the first pitch. The keyboard device is configured such that sound is generated based on a second sound-generating process that is different from the first sound-generating process, upon receiving performance data including a second pitch that is different from the first pitch.
Abstract:
An acoustic system includes a supply device, which is connected to a network and configured to supply an acoustic signal to the network. The acoustic system also includes a plurality of output devices each configured to output a sound based on the acoustic signal supplied from the supply device via the network and a control device configured to control, based on a frequency of the acoustic signal, to which output device the acoustic signal is to be supplied out of the plurality of output devices.
Abstract:
A performance information output control apparatus includes a detection part which detects a plurality of positions of a music performance interface during a single stroke with respect to an operator of a keyboard instrument, the music performance interface including a mechanism that interlocks with the operator, an estimated music-sound generation time analysis part which calculates an estimated music-sound generation time point representing a time point at which music sound according to the single stroke with respect to the operator is estimated to be generated, based on a detection result of the positions of the music performance interface by the detection part, and a music performance information output part which outputs, when the detection result by the detection part is obtained, music performance information representing music performance contents corresponding to the single stroke with respect to the operator prior to the calculated estimated music-sound generation time point.
Abstract:
A musical-performance-information transmission method using a first instrument and a second instrument, wherein the first instrument produces sounds in accordance with a user's musical performance and generates musical-performance data in accordance with the produced sounds and the second instrument produces sounds by receiving the musical performance data via a communication means. In the musical-performance-information transmission method, a mixed-sound signal is generated in accordance with a mixture of sounds produced by the first instrument and sounds that are different from the sounds produced by the first instrument, a reference signal is generated in accordance with the sounds produced by the first instrument, and on the basis of the mixed-sound signal and the reference signal, the reference signal is removed from the mixed-sound signal, generating a separated signal, and sound is emitted on the basis of said separated signal.
Abstract:
The present invention allows a user to visually identify musical performance data to be reproduced. The user utilizes a musical performance device (100) and an image pickup device (200) that picks up an image of the musical performance to record the musical performance data onto a musical performance recording server device (400) with a musical performance date/time. Further, image data is recorded onto an image recording server device (300) with the image pickup date/time. To reproduce the musical performance, the user visually selects the image picked up from among the images recorded on the image recording server device (300). The musical performance data associated with the musical performance date/time close to the image pickup date/time of the selected image is identified on the musical performance recording server device (400), and the musical performance is reproduced on the musical performance device (100) based on the identified musical performance data.
Abstract:
An acoustic system includes a supply device, which is connected to a network and configured to supply an acoustic signal to the network, and at least one output device configured to output a sound based on the acoustic signal supplied from the supply device via the network. Also, the acoustic system includes a control unit, which is provided to the at least one output device on a one-to-one basis, and configured to control necessity/non-necessity of outputting the acoustic signal to an associated one of the at least one output device, based on frequency characteristics of the acoustic signal.
Abstract:
A keyboard device includes a plurality of keys, and a keyboard driver configured to drive at least a part of the plurality of keys. The keyboard device is configured such that, in accordance with determination whether a key corresponding to a pitch of event data is drivable by the keyboard driver, sound is generated based on a first sound-generating process in which the keyboard driver is configured to drive the key corresponding to the pitch or a second sound-generating process that is different from the first sound-generating process.
Abstract:
A recording method acquires, from a first musical instrument which outputs playing data which represents playing information, playing data of playing by the first musical instrument; generates a first waveform signal according to the played sounds of the first musical instrument which correspond to the playing data; generates a second waveform signal according to a sound including a sound emitted from the first musical instrument and other sounds; generates a third waveform signal wherein the first waveform signal is subtracted from the second waveform signal; generates audio data from the third waveform signal; and records the audio data.
Abstract:
An acoustic system includes a supply device, which is connected to a network and configured to supply an acoustic signal to the network and at least one output device configured to output a sound that is based on the acoustic signal supplied from the supply device via the network. The acoustic system also includes a detection unit configured to detect whether the at least one output device is in a state of being capable of outputting the sound and a control device configured to control, based on a result of the detection by the detection unit, to which output device the acoustic signal is to be supplied out of the at least one output device.
