Abstract:
A sequence of performance data to be loop-reproduced is read out repetitively for at least two cycles, and audio data repeating for at least two cycles are created on the basis of the read-out performance data. Audio data of a second or subsequent cycle of the created audio data have mixed therein a residual portion (release portion or reverberation portion) of a tone generated in a preceding cycle. The audio data of the second or subsequent cycle are stored as audio data for loop reproduction, and thus, the stored audio data for loop reproduction will include a residual portion of a tone generated in a preceding cycle. Thus, if the stored audio data for loop reproduction are reproduced repetitively, it is possible to achieve loop reproduction reflecting therein a residual portion of a tone generated in a preceding cycle.
Abstract:
A musical performance support device includes: a tempo analysis unit that analyzes a tempo of musical piece sound data, the musical piece sound data indicating a musical piece sound; a sound generation unit that generates a sound based on the analyzed tempo, the generated sound indicating a beat of the musical piece sound data; and a sound processing unit that adds the generated sound to the musical piece sound.
Abstract:
A storage section stores therein a plurality of music content items each including image data of one or more pages. An order is determined of two or more of the music content items stored in the storage section. Page information designating a page to be displayed is acquired, for example, in response to a user's operation. By reference to the storage section, a page arrangement is specified which is indicative of a state in which the image data of the ordered two or more music content items are arranged in a consecutive fashion in accordance with the determined order. A page designated by the acquired page number information is identified in the specified page arrangement. Image data of the acquired page is displayed on a display.
