前記制御手段は、複数のチャンネルの各々の音量としてＮ種類よりも少ないＭ種類の音量のいずれかを前記音制御手段に指定可能である。
その他の遊技機は、
遊技を行う遊技機（例えば、遊技機１）において、
音を出力するための音出力手段（例えば、スピーカ５３，５４）と、
遊技機の制御を行う制御手段（例えば、サブ制御部９１）と、
前記音出力手段から音を出力する制御を実行する音制御手段（例えば、音声出力回路９４）と、を備え、
前記制御手段は、複数のチャンネル（例えば、図３に示すチャンネル０〜チャンネル１５）の各々において、前記音出力手段から出力する音を特定可能な音データと、前記音出力手段から出力する音の音量を設定可能であり（例えば、図３に示すチャンネル０〜チャンネル４の演出音の音データと、チャンネル０〜チャンネル１５の音量を設定可能な部分）、
前記音制御手段は、複数のチャンネルに設定された音データから特定される音を設定された音量に従って前記音出力手段から出力させ（例えば、音声出力回路９４は、図３に示すチャンネル０〜チャンネル４の演出音の音データから特定される演出音をスピーカ５３，５４から出力する部分）、
前記制御手段は、所定条件が成立（例えば、ブラックアウト演出の実行、エラーの発生）したときに前記音出力手段から出力する音の音量を低下させる音量低下制御を実行する音量低下制御手段を（例えば、図３に示す部分、図６のＳａ３の処理を行う部分、図７のＳｃ２の処理を行う部分）含み、
前記音量低下制御手段は、音データが設定されているチャンネルに低下後の音量を設定するとともに音データが設定されていないチャンネルにも低下後の音量を設定して前記音量低下制御を実行する（例えば、図３に示す部分、図６のＳａ３の処理を行う部分、図７のＳｃ２の処理を行う部分）。
この構成によれば、意図しない音量で音が出力されてしまい、演出効果を損ねてしまうことを防止することができる。 (A) In a game machine that plays a game
Sound output means for outputting sound,
Control means for controlling the game machine and
It is provided with a sound control means having a plurality of channels and executing control to output a production sound specified by sound data set in each of the plurality of channels from the sound output means.
The control means specifies to the sound control means which sound data is to be set for each of the plurality of channels, and also specifies the volume of each of the plurality of channels.
The sound control means sets sound data for each of a plurality of channels based on the designation from the control means, and causes the sound output means to output a sound specified from the sound data according to a designated volume. ,
The control means includes a volume reduction control means that executes volume reduction control for reducing the volume of the sound output from the sound output means when a predetermined condition is satisfied.
The volume reduction control means executes the volume reduction control by designating the volume after reduction for the channel in which the sound data is set and also designating the volume after reduction in the channel for which the sound data is not set.
The sound control means can set any of N types of volumes as the volume of each of the plurality of channels.
The control means can specify any of M types of volumes, which are less than N types, as the volume of each of the plurality of channels to the sound control means.
Other game machines
In a game machine (for example, game machine 1) that plays a game
Sound output means for outputting sound (for example, speakers 53 and 54) and
A control means for controlling the game machine (for example, a sub control unit 91) and
A sound control means (for example, a voice output circuit 94) that executes control to output sound from the sound output means is provided.
The control means has sound data capable of identifying the sound output from the sound output means and sound output from the sound output means in each of a plurality of channels (for example, channels 0 to 15 shown in FIG. 3). The volume can be set (for example, the sound data of the effect sound of channel 0 to channel 4 shown in FIG. 3 and the part where the volume of channel 0 to channel 15 can be set).
The sound control means outputs a sound specified from sound data set in a plurality of channels from the sound output means according to a set volume (for example, the voice output circuit 94 has channels 0 to channels shown in FIG. 3). The part that outputs the production sound specified from the sound data of the production sound of 4 from the speakers 53 and 54),
The control means is a volume reduction control means that executes volume reduction control for reducing the volume of the sound output from the sound output means when a predetermined condition is satisfied (for example, execution of a blackout effect or occurrence of an error). For example, the portion shown in FIG. 3, the portion where the processing of Sa3 in FIG. 6 is performed, and the portion where the processing of Sc2 in FIG. 7 is performed) are included.
The volume reduction control means executes the volume reduction control by setting the volume after reduction in the channel in which the sound data is set and setting the volume in the channel in which the sound data is not set. For example, the portion shown in FIG. 3, the portion where the processing of Sa3 in FIG. 6 is performed, and the portion where the processing of Sc2 in FIG. 7 is performed).
According to this configuration, it is possible to prevent the sound from being output at an unintended volume and impairing the effect of the effect.
