An apparatus and a method for reproducing a MIDI file are provided. In the apparatus and the method, a point that limits reproduction of a MIDI file is determined and reproduction of the MIDI file is forcibly terminated at the determined reproduction limitation point when the MIDI file is reproduced. Therefore, non-continuous points are reduced and thus noises are reduced, so that the MIDI file can be reproduced in high quality.

Phase setting section sets virtual phases in a frequency series of an audio signal. Unit wave extraction section extracts, from the frequency series, a unit wave of one cyclic period defined by the set virtual phases, for each of a plurality of time points. First generation section generates velocity information corresponding to a degree of compression/expansion, to a predetermined length, of the unit wave. Second generation section generates shape information indicative of a shape of a frequency spectrum of the unit wave having been adjusted. Variation component impartment section generates a variation component by use of the velocity information and shape information generated for the individual time points.

A circuit and method for generating waveforms when synthesizing musical sounds. In one embodiment, the invention provides a multiplexer/shifter which modifies the phase angle input according to the particular waveform desired. Boolean logic gates further modify the multiplexer/shifter output based on the two most significant bits of the phase angle input and according to the particular waveform desired. Finally, a multiplier multiplies the multiplexer/shifter output with the output of the Boolean logic gates to produce the desired waveform. The invention may employ banks of exclusive OR gates and AND gates as the Boolean logic. Another embodiment of the invention provides a waveshaping method where a desired waveform is generated from a phase angle input. The phase angle input is multiplexed/shifted based on the particular waveform desired. The results of the multiplexing/shifting are then modified by Boolean logic gates, based on the two most significant bits of the phase angle input and according to the particular waveform desired. The results of the multiplexing/shifting and the Boolean logic are then multiplied together to produce the desired waveform.

A method for stringed instruments' pickup, the method comprising a step of: capturing mechanical vibrations of at least one string; and converting them to a signal representative of a string's current state, the method being characterized in that the capturing comprises the following steps: capturing, using an image capturing device, image frames comprising views of at least one musical instrument's string in a still state; storing the captured image as a reference of a still state; capturing (500), using the image capturing device, image frames comprising views of at least one musical instrument's string in a vibrating state; storing the captured image as a reference of a vibrating state; comparing (520) the still state reference with a vibrating state reference in order to find (530) amplitude of vibrations of each string as well as frequency of each string vibrations based on amplitude height in pixels with reference to the still state and determining a frequency of each vibrating string on the basis of the number of pixels between two nuts of at least half-period of a given periodic function.
