Definitions

  • the processing unit 30 checks its registers as to whether the sound mode is on 58. If the sound mode is on, the digital to analog converter 20 produces an analog output signal 60 based upon the digital music data retrieved 36. The analog sound is output 62 through the audio output 24 of the instrument. Even if the tempo is altered, the original analog audio output pitch is maintained.
  • the processing unit 30 determines 38 a location on the musical instrument corresponding to the musical data.
  • the LED matrix 22 indicates 40 to the user the determined location on the instrument where the user should physically engage to produce the corresponding notes on the instrument. The user then engages the instrument at the indicated location, and sound is produced by vibration of the string so engaged.
  • the present invention of a musical training instrument includes both a method and an apparatus.
