摘要： The display screen displays measure windows corresponding to the first through fourth measures for a melody to be composed. By clicking the play switch on the screen, a background accompaniment performance covering the four measures is played back to indicate the beats in the progressing tempo, thereby representing the rhythm speed. In time to the accompaniment progression, the user inputs note time points by tapping the input switch such as a space key in the keyboard to constitute a rhythm pattern for a melody progression. The measure window has a time axis in the horizontal direction and a pitch axis in the vertical direction. The tap-inputted note time points are exhibited at the corresponding positions along the time axis from left to right. Each point is dragged with the mouse pointer upward or downward to an intended pitch level, thereby establishing a pitch thereof. Alternatively, a pitch variation curve is drawn in the measure window plane to be sampled at the note time points, thereby establishing pitches of the respective note points. Only the pitches of important notes may be inputted, and the remainder may be automatically created in the apparatus according to a prepared algorithm.
摘要翻译：显示屏幕显示对应于要组成的旋律的第一到第四措施的测量窗口。通过单击屏幕上的播放开关，播放覆盖四个度量的背景伴奏演奏，以指示节奏中的节拍，从而表示节奏速度。在伴奏进行的时候，用户通过点击诸如键盘中的空格键的输入开关来输入音符时间点，以构成旋律演进的节奏模式。测量窗口在水平方向上具有时间轴，在垂直方向上具有俯仰轴。抽头输入的音符时间点在从左到右沿着时间轴的对应位置展现。每个点被鼠标指针向上或向下拖动到预期的音高水平，从而建立其间距。或者，在测量窗口平面中画出音调变化曲线，以在音符时间点进行采样，从而建立各音符点的间距。可以仅输入重要音符的音调，并且可以根据准备的算法在装置中自动创建其余部分。

摘要： Automatic composition apparatus and method are provided which are capable of modifying a rhythm pattern to provide a wide variety of rhythm patterns only through simple setting, and a storage medium that accomplishes this function is provided. Characteristics of a rhythm pattern of a piece of music to be composed are established. Characteristic data that match the established characteristics are retrieved from a rhythm pattern database rhythm pattern database comprising a plurality of rhythm patterns and characteristic data indicating characteristics of each of the rhythm patterns. One of the rhythm patterns is selected, that corresponds to the retrieved characteristic data. Accordingly, different rhythm patterns having the same characteristics can be easily obtained. Further, composition conditions to be applied to a whole piece of music to be composed are established, and the established composition conditions are allocated to each of sectional elements that constitute the piece of music, for example, a passage, a phrase, or a measure, and the composition conditions for the whole piece of music, in other words, distributed among the respective passages, phrases or measures. Therefore, a rhythm pattern having different characteristics may be obtained by changing only the characteristics of the whole piece of music, thus assuring an improved efficiency with which the user operates the apparatus.

摘要： An automatic music composing apparatus comprises a musical template data base storing a plurality of musical templates each including a first set of data constituting a musical melody sample defined by a pattern of musical tone pitch progression in a pattern of rhythm to be performed for a musical piece and a second set of data indicative of musical features of said musical melody sample. The melody sample is constructed and partitioned in such a hierarchical structure that a musical piece is comprised of sentences, each sentence is comprised of phrases, each phrase is comprised of measures, and each measure includes a plurality of notes having respective pitches and durations to constitute a melody segment having a rhythm pattern. The apparatus comprises an input device for inputting composition conditions to define musical features for a musical piece to be composed in terms of the number of sentences, phrases and measures, and similarity symbols of each sentence. Comparing the structure and the features of each template with the requested composition conditions, the apparatus retrieves candidate templates from the database according to the substitution rules unique to the invention.

摘要： Automatic composition apparatus and method is able to automatically compose a piece of music having a melody that is favorable in a musical sense, namely, a melody that satisfies musical requirements. A storage medium stores a program executed for automatically composing a piece of music having such a melody as described above. After melody pitches are generated under moderate first melody generation conditions, the generated melody pitches are evaluated in terms of more strict second melody generation conditions. With regard to a certain pitch, therefore, it can be determined whether the pitch satisfies musical requirements in view of not only the previous pitch but also the next pitch, thus making it possible to compose a piece of music that as a whole is favorable in a musical sense. Further, since the melody generated in the first stage only includes pitches that meet less strict melody generating conditions, the same melody is less likely to be rejected in the evaluation of the second stage, assuring high efficiency with which melody generation can be accomplished.

摘要： An automatic composition apparatus is provided which enables the user to compose a piece of music while taking account of the overall structure of the melody of the piece of music as a whole. A CPU generates each of a plurality of layers of skeleton that constitutes a melody of a piece of music. The plurality of layers form a hierarchical structure formed preferably of a layer of an overall skeleton, a layer of an passage skeleton based on the overall skeleton, and a phrase skeleton based on the passage skeleton. The CPU generates each layer of skeleton except the highest layer of skeleton, based on at least one of the plurality of layers of skeleton that is higher than the each layer of skeleton.

摘要： For each section forming a music piece, music template information is supplied which includes at least information indicative of a pitch variation tendency in the section. A plurality of already-composed music pieces are preferably analyzed to store a plurality of pieces of such music template information so that any users can select from the stored pieces of music template information. For a music piece to be composed, the user enters information indicative of a tendency relating to the number of notes, such as syllable information of desired words or scat words, in each section of the music piece. On the basis of one of the pieces of music template information supplied and the user-entered information indicative of the number-of-notes tendency (syllable information), the length and pitch of notes in each section can be determined, which permits automatic generation of music piece data. If the music template information is used with no modification, an automatically composed music piece will considerably resemble its original music piece. The user can freely modify the music template information to be used, so that a music piece different from its corresponding original music piece can be created with the user's intention reflected thereon. The music template information can be easily modified by any users having poor knowledge of composition, and the present composing technique can be easily used by everyone.

摘要： A rhythm pattern is provided to be subjected to forward syncopation processing. The time position of an un-syncopated note in the rhythm pattern is shifted forward to render advanced beating of the note to make a forward-syncopated rhythm pattern. The notes in the modified rhythm pattern are given respective note pitches to establish a melody, wherein the skeleton notes in the rhythm pattern are given skeleton pitches, and the non-skeleton notes in the rhythm pattern are given non-skeleton pitches. The advanced beating of a note makes a skeleton note which plays an important role in syncopation.
