摘要： A method and apparatus for synthesis of sound. One method for synthesis of musical sound includes receiving a stream of packets including a preceding packet and a succeeding packet for reproducing the musical sound continuously along a time axis. Each packet contains identification information effective to specify vector data stored in a first storage device. According to the identification information in the preceding packet, vector data of the succeeding packet is predicted. The predicted vector data is transferred from the first storage device to a second storage device before the succeeding packet is received such that the predicted vector data can be cached in the second storage device. The cached vector data is retrieved from the second storage device when the succeeding packet is received and the identification information contained therein hits the cached vector data to thereby synthesize the musical sound.

摘要： A wind controller is disclosed which provides glitch-free playing of the instrument by using key position sensors which produce tristate logic signals indicating released, held, or transition positions of each key. Logic circuitry processes the key position signals and prevents any note from sounding when any of the keys is in transition between the released and held positions. The controller also allows the player to select alternate fingering charts which avoid “mine field” fingerings and which are created and downloaded to the wind controller using a personal computer. A set of chord keys and a computer program allows the player to register, without sounding, a series of notes to make up a chord using a registration key and an enable/disable key which alternately activates the last registered chord for playing or deactivates it to return to monophonic mode. Another registration key is provided to register another chord whereby an endless progression of chords can be played in succession.

摘要： Data to be used for generating tone waveform data corresponding to a partial time section of a tone are stored in a basic file or expansion file. In a wave part area of each of the files, there are stored wave part data to be used for generating tone waveform data corresponding to a partial time section of a tone, and the wave part data includes information designating several groups of template data indicative of variations, in the partial time section, of a plurality of tone factors, such as a waveform template, pitch template, amplitude template, spectrum template and time template. Each of the expansion files contains data representative of differences from data stored in the corresponding basic file. The data are stored in such a manner as to avoid overlapping data storage, in order to minimize the total quantity of data.

摘要： A network system is constructed for operating a music apparatus having a function as an electronic musical instrument under control by a local terminal which is communicable with a host computer through a network. In the system, the host computer is installed with a capability utilized to compute data effective to extent the function of the electronic musical instrument. The local terminal is connectable to the host computer through the network to remotely control the capability of the host computer so as to compute the data prepared for the music apparatus. The local terminal downloads the computed data from the host computer into the music apparatus through the local terminal. The music apparatus operates according to the downloaded data to extend its own function as the electronic musical instrument. Further, the capability itself can be transferred from the host computer to the music apparatus through the local terminal.

摘要： A method of converting performance information is carried out by the steps of receiving identification information that identifies an target tone generator different from an available tone generator, reading out first performance information that indicates a music performance in the form of a sequence of tones, and that includes timbre information specifying a timbre of the tones, and changing the timbre information included in the read first performance information based on the received identification information so as to generate second performance information including the changed timbre information adapted to the target tone generator. By such a manner, the available tone generator can process the second performance information to generate the sequence of tones having a timbre as if generated by the target tone generator.

摘要： Tone color selecting space is provided, where tone color data are allocated to addressable locations in association with tone color selection information in accordance with a predetermined tone color standard. Into the tone color selecting space can be loaded not only tone color data compliant with the predetermined tone color standard, but also other tone color data, such as those of a standard different from the predetermined tone color standard, loadable externally from an external source. In the tone color selecting space, a dedicated area is set for allocating the externally loaded tone color data. Thus, the externally loaded tone color data can be allocated to the dedicated area and selected in response to tone color selection information designating the dedicated area. If the externally loaded tone color data include specific original tone color selection information, the original tone color selection information may be replaced with the tone color selection information designating the dedicated area such that the tone color data can be selected in response to the original tone color selection information. The externally loaded tone color data may be given priority over the tone color data compliant with the predetermined tone color standard so that the externally loaded tone color data can be allocated to an addressable location in the tone color selecting space with storage location allocation corresponding to the original tone color selection information.

摘要： An electric musical instrument is provided, which enables rich and diverse expressions to be achieved in musical performance. A driving member drives a tone generating source. A driving member-side signal generator obtains a signal from the driving member and outputs the obtained signal. A musical tone signal generator generates a musical tone signal using the signal output by the driving member-side signal generator and outputs the generated musical tone signal. In another aspect of the invention, a tone generating source-side signal generator obtains a tone generating source-side signal from the tone generating source and outputs the obtained signal, and a driving member-side signal generator obtains a driving member-side signal from the driving member and outputs the obtained signal. A modulation device frequency-modulates one of the tone generating source-side signal and the driving member side signal with the other signal. The modulated signal is output from the modulation device as a sound.

摘要： In a tone color map generating section, a tone color parameter and the effective time for making the tone color map effective are extracted from an SMF stored in a MIDI file database, and the tone color parameter is stored in a tone color map database. When a demand processing section receives a playback start position for starting the playback of the SMF, a read processing section reads the tone color parameter stored in the tone color map database in accordance with the playback start position, and generates time information indicating time to set the tone color parameter in a MIDI device. A sending circuit sends the tone color parameter together with the corresponding time information, and then sends a MIDI signal from the playback start position thereafter, stored in the MIDI file database.

摘要： An electronic, voice-controlled musical instrument called the Vocolo, in which the player hums into the mouthpiece, and the device imitates the sound of a musical instrument whose pitch and volume change in response to the player's voice is disclosed. The player is given the impression of playing the actual instrument and controlling it intimately with the fine nuances of his voice. The invention comprises techniques for pitch quantization that provide esthetically pleasing note transitions, mechanisms for song recording that are suited for rhythmic repeated playback and performance evaluation of the player's pitch control, techniques related to expressive control and pitch detection, and techniques for mitigating the effect of pitch detection errors. Embodiments are disclosed for providing finger/hand interaction for expressive control, a microphone enclosure that mitigates audio feedback, and for providing rhythmic feedback to the player through mechanical vibrations induced in the device.
