Among the plurality of keys, at least two keys are disposed to be adjacent to each other, and the operation surfaces of the at least two keys are configured to be inclined to descend toward between the at least two keys when viewed from a left-right direction of the electronic musical instrument.

Abstract: A method of controlling sound signals for mixing a backing sound and a guitar sound. The method includes configuring a user terminal to: receive a first input instruction selected from a plurality of available input instructions, where the plurality of available input instructions include a first instruction to transmit a signal of the backing sound; to provide the signal of the backing sound to a wireless communication device in response to the first input instruction being the first instruction to transmit the signal of the backing sound; and to control the wireless communication device to convert the signal of the backing sound to a first wireless signal and transmit the first wireless signal to a sound output device for mixing the signal of the backing sound and a signal of the guitar sound provided from the sound output device.

Abstract: An automatic performance device includes: a pattern storage part, storing a plurality of performance patterns; a performing part, performing a performance based on the performance pattern stored in the pattern storage part; an input part, inputting performance information from an input device; a rhythm detection part, detecting a rhythm from the performance information inputted by the input part; an acquisition part, acquiring from among the plurality of performance patterns stored in the pattern storage part the performance pattern corresponding to the rhythm detected by the rhythm detection part; and a switching part, switching the performance pattern being performed by the performing part to the performance pattern acquired by the acquisition part.

Abstract: A storage medium storing a musical performance program and a musical performance device are provided. A musical sound is output through a clicking operation performed on an operation button, and a tone parameter is changed through a dragging operation. A parameter display part 6a is displayed on the operation button. When the musical sound is output through a clicking operation performed on the operation button, a user can recognize a state of the tone parameter of the output musical sound in advance through the parameter display part. Since the tone parameter set through a dragging operation performed on the operation button is reflected to the parameter display part, the tone parameter is recognized without looking away from the operation button.

Abstract: A keyboard device includes a support member, a plurality of keys swingably supported by the support member and arranged side by side in a scale direction, and a hammer interlocked with swinging of each key. The hammer includes a receiving part recessed downward. Each key includes a protrusion protruding downward and inserted into the receiving part. An arc surface is formed on at least one of a bottom surface of the receiving part and a lower surface of the protrusion. When each key swings, the protrusion rotates about a center of a circle including the arc surface.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a server, a musical instrument, a server communication method, and a communication method. The server is connected to a terminal and a musical instrument and comprises a processor, wherein the processor is configured to receive an instruction from the terminal, create a timbre data or a data request destination, and transmit the timbre data or the data request destination to the musical instrument.

Abstract: A sound source device for an electronic musical instrument includes processing electronics to provide at least one virtual input port, assign a different respective tone or other effect to each virtual input port, associate each respective first playing operation device of a musical instrument system with a respective virtual input port, and receive first playing information from at least one of the first playing operation devices. A musical sound generating unit generates a musical sound signal on the basis of the first playing information received and the tone or other effect assigned to the respective virtual input port associated with the first playing operation device.

Abstract: An amplifier includes an amplification section for amplifying a musical tone signal input from an electric musical instrument. A plurality of speakers are connected to the amplifier.

Abstract: A keyboard device includes keys, drive devices, a housing, and a fan. The keys are arranged side by side in a scale direction. The drive devices apply, to the keys, a driving force swinging the key. The housing includes a shelf plate supporting the drive devices. The fan is attached to an upper side of the shelf plate of the housing and exhausts air in the housing to outside. The shelf plate includes an air intake port for sucking in air outside the housing by the fan.

Abstract: This sound effect generation method includes: generating a sound effect with respect to a sound by using an all-pole filter having a coefficient generated on the basis of an actual measurement value of impulse response; and outputting the sound effect.

Abstract: A displacement amount detecting apparatus is provided and includes: transmission member, transmitting a displacement on one end side thereof to a displacement on the other end side thereof; a sensor, disposed to face the other end side of the transmission member, and configured to output a value according to a distance between the sensor and the other end side of the transmission member; a calculation device, calculating a value for indicating the distance based on the value output by the sensor and a reference value; and a correction device, correcting the reference value. When the one end side is displaced in a first direction, the other end side is displaced in a second direction opposite to the first direction and away from the sensor. The correction device is configured to correct the reference value based on the value for indicating the distance calculated by the calculation device.

Abstract: A drum head and an attachment method of a cushion are provided. A drum head includes: a diaphragm; an outer cushion that is joined to the diaphragm and has a predetermined cushioning property; an inner cushion that is interposed between the outer cushion and the diaphragm and has a predetermined cushioning property; and at least one joint that joins the outer cushion to the diaphragm in a state in which the inner cushion is pressed against the diaphragm by the outer cushion.

Abstract: A sound controlling system including a user terminal having a sound source, a wireless communication device, a digital to analog converter (DAC) and first processing electronics. The first processing electronics are configured to: provide data of a backing sound to the sound source; control the sound source to generate a sound signal based on the data; receive a first input instruction including a first instruction to transmit the sound signal and a second instruction to play back the backing sound; provide the sound signal to the wireless communication device as the first input instruction being the first instruction, and provide the sound signal to the DAC as being the second instruction; control the wireless communication device to convert the sound signal to a wireless signal and transmit the wireless signal; and convert the sound signal from a digital signal to an analog signal for play back of the backing sound.
