Abstract: A sound field control apparatus which is capable of adjusting the number of outputs as required. The sound field control apparatus is comprised of a master device, and a plurality of salve devices serially connected in cascade to the master device. In the master device, a picked-up sound signal input section inputs picked-up sound signals from a plurality of microphones. A signal processing section generates reflected sound signals from the input picked-up sound signals. A cascade output terminal outputs the reflected sound signals. In each of the slave devices, a cascade input terminal inputs the generated reflected sound signal, a plurality of signal processing sections correspond to a plurality of speakers and each adjust sound characteristics of the input reflected sound signals and generate and output signals to the corresponding speakers. A cascade output terminal directly outputs the input reflected sound signals.

Abstract: Automatic accompaniment performance data for a plurality of sections of a musical piece are stored. One of the plurality of sections is designated. Automatic accompaniment performance data for the designated one section from the automatic performance data for the plurality of sections is read out to play automatic accompaniment performance. Automatic accompaniment performance data for another section is used in place of the automatic accompaniment performance data for the designated one section if the automatic accompaniment performance data for the designated on section is not stored.

Abstract: A musical tone generation apparatus is provided with a plurality of tone generation channels, a first memory for storing musical tone parameter including tone color specifying parameter, i.e., tone color name or number of tone color, in units of the tone generation channels, and a second memory for storing tone color parameter data. When tone color change is designated, the first parameter memory outputs tone color specifying parameter to the second parameter memory. In response to this, the second memory outputs the changed tone color parameter data to the tone generation channels to thereby generate tone having new tone color. As a result, tone color change is easily performed.

Abstract: An electronic musical instrument for generating musical tone signal including a performance data generating part or generating performance data such as key-on, key-code and key-touch. The instrument also includes a control circuit for generating musical tone control data such as envelope rate data, envelope level data and initial phase data according to the performance data. Further, the control circuit adopts the time-sharing technology for generating plural musical tone signal, so that this instrument is comparatively simple at its circuit configuration compared with the prior art.

Abstract: A musical tone generating apparatus includes a waveform generator for generating a musical tone signal corresponding to a desired musical tone based on a key-on event which occurs in a keyboard and an envelope generator for generating an envelope which controls the amplitude of the musical tone signal in response to the key-on event. When a key-on event occurs, the envelope generator compares the current value of the envelope with a predetermined value, and based on the result of this comparison, determines a initial value of the next envelope corresponding to the key-on event. Consequently, the musical tone generating apparatus can generate musical tones without generating a click noise even if the key-on event repeatedly occurs over time at short intervals.

Abstract: There is provided a selection switch for selecting musical information determining characteristics of a tone such as a tone color. This selection switch is pre-assigned with first musical information. Switches and circuits are provided for assigning second musical information to the selection switch. This second musical information is one selected as desired from among plural musical information. Thus, at least two musical information of the pre-assigned first musical information and the selectively assigned second musical information are assigned to the selection switch. There is also provided a mode selection switch. When a first mode has been selected by this mode selection switch, a characteristic of a tone to be produced is determined by the first musical information. When the second mode has been selected, a characteristic of a tone to be produced is determined by the second musical information.
