摘要： In a sound effect applying apparatus, an input part frequency-analyzes an input signal of sound or voice for detecting a plurality of local peaks of harmonics contained in the input signal. A subharmonics provision part adds a spectrum component of subharmonics between the detected local peaks so as to provide the input signal with a sound effect. An output part converts the input signal of a frequency domain containing the added spectrum component into an output signal of a time domain for generating the sound or voice provided with the sound effect.

摘要： Each time a predetermined type of note controlling performance data (e.g., note-on event data) is detected from among a series of performance data, deviation values for a plurality of channels, varying in deviation state among the channels, are set such that a control value of a predetermined tone characteristic (e.g., event generation timing), included in the note controlling performance data, is caused to vary among the plurality of channels. Then, values, obtained by causing the control value vary among the plurality of channels in accordance with the respective deviation values of the channels, are set as new control values for the corresponding channels. Then, for each of the channels, there is created note controlling performance data of the predetermined type having the corresponding new control value incorporated therein. A break of a phrase in performance data may be detected so that control can be performed per phrase.

摘要： A karaoke apparatus accompanies a vocal performance with a karaoke accompaniment reproduced according to karaoke data. In the karaoke apparatus, an input device separately converts a plurality of singing voices vocalized by different singers into respective ones of initial voice signals. At least one pitch sifter is utilized to shift a pitch of the initial voice signal to create a modified voice signal representative of a harmony voice made consonant to the singing voice. A distributor operates according to control information contained in the karaoke data to selectively distribute at least one of the initial voice signals to the pitch sifter so as to create the modified voice signal corresponding to the distributed initial voice signal. An output device selectively mixes the initial voice signals and the modified voice signal to reproduce the vocal performance composed of selected ones of the singing voices and the harmony voice in synchronization with the karaoke accompaniment.

摘要： A karaoke apparatus is constructed for playing a karaoke song according to song data jointly with a first vocal part and a second vocal part. In the karaoke apparatus, a generator device processes the song data to produce an orchestral accompaniment sound during the course of play of the karaoke song. A first input device collects a first singing voice which is physically sung along the orchestral accompaniment sound to fit with the first vocal part. A second input device collects a second singing voice which is physically sung along the orchestral accompaniment sound to support the first singing voice. An adjuster device adjusts at least a pitch of the second singing voice collected by the second input device according to reference data contained in the song data so as to fit the second singing voice with the second vocal part. A mixer device mixes the first singing voice collected by the first input device and the second singing voice fed from the adjuster device together with the orchestral accompaniment sound to thereby effect play of the karaoke song. The first singing voice may be of a main melody, while the second singing voice may be of a harmony melody or a back chorus.

摘要： A harmony chorus apparatus collects an original of a vocal sound performed after a main melody pattern of a song, and adds a chorus sound derived after a chorus melody pattern of the same song to the vocal sound. A memory stores a main melody data representative of the main melody pattern and a chorus melody data representative of the chorus melody pattern which is designed in harmony with the main melody pattern. A pitch difference calculator sequentially retrieves the main melody data and the chorus memory data from the memory in synchronization with progression of the song, and calculates a pitch difference between the main melody pattern and the chorus memory pattern according to the retrieved main melody data and chorus melody data. A chorus generator shifts a pitch of the collected vocal sound by the calculated pitch difference to generate the chorus sound in the form of a variation of the vocal sound. A mixing device mixes the generated variation of the vocal sound and the collected original of the vocal sound with each other to thereby create a harmony of the song.

摘要： Music information and word information are input to a music/word information input unit. A voice part extracting unit extracts note length information, pitch information, loudness information, and phonetic symbols from the music information and the word information for each voice part. A note length information changing unit changes the note length information extracted for each voice part. A pitch information changing unit changes the pitch information extracted for each voice part. Furthermore, a loudness information changing unit detects a solo in a chorus and changes the loudness information of the solo. A singing voice signal synthesizing unit provided for each voice part synthesizes a singing voice signal according to the note length information extracted and changed for each voice part, the pitch information extracted and changed for each voice part, the changed loudness information, and the phonetic symbols. A chorus signal generating unit generates a singing voice signal in a chorus from the singing voice signals synthesized for each voice part. A singing voice output unit generates singing voices of the chorus from the singing voice signals of the chorus and outputs them.

摘要： A karaoke type system allows a participant to sing on key with a prerecorded song. A microphone produces an input signal that corresponds to a singer's voice, and a pitch corrector samples the input vocal signal and determines its pitch. The pitch corrector reads a series of codes that are stored with the prerecorded song that indicates the pitch at which the input vocal signal is to be sung in order to be on key with the prerecorded song. The pitch corrector shifts the pitch of the input vocal signal to be on key.

摘要： A performance apparatus for producing a mixed musical tone signal having a comparator and a modulator. The comparator detects key data corresponding to musical tones having the same pitch and the same or similar tone colors from key data of musical tones to be mixed. The modulator changes at least a tone element of the mixed musical tone signal on the basis of the key data detected by the comparator to produce tones having multiple-tone like tone colors. The modulator comprises a detuner for detuning pitches of some musical tones of a plurality of musical tones formed based on the key data detected by the comparator, or comprises a modulator for modulating an amplitude or a frequency of the musical tone signal formed and mixed bases on the key data detected by the comparator.

摘要： An electronic musical instrument can execute a musical performance with two timbres mixed together by operating a single key, for example. Of the two timbres, a master timbre is set in normal mode and is stored in a first memory, while a slave timbre is selected in tone mix mode and is stored in a second memory. Each timbre can be altered as desired. To alter the master timbre, timbre switches are operated after the mode is temporarily changed to normal mode. To alter the slave timbre, the timbre switches are operated in tone mix mode. When the tone mix mode is set, this electronic musical instrument can permit a player to easily alter tone parameters such as the volume, pitch and attack delay time of each timbre.
