Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an electronic musical instrument, an automatic musical instrument, or any other musical tone generating apparatus that arbitrarily selects musical performance setting data for collectively setting one set of musical performance elements called registration data. The present invention relates to a setting data selection device, and more particularly, to a performance setting data selection device capable of efficiently and accurately setting various parameters.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally known performance setting data selection devices are used, for example, in musical tone generating equipment (for example, electronic musical instruments) having an automatic accompaniment function. The user can perform a plurality of parameter settings such as control of musical tones played by the electronic musical instrument and accompaniment by a plurality of panel switches provided on the panel, and perform a performance in this panel setting state. In such a panel setting state, the user can arbitrarily set individual parameters, but the panel setting state (hereinafter referred to as registration data) storing a recommended combination of a plurality of parameters is also stored in advance in the electronic musical instrument. It is prepared inside. The user can automatically set various parameters by selecting desired resist data from a plurality of resist data displayed in a list on a display screen (for example, a liquid crystal screen) provided on the electronic musical instrument. ing. FIG. 6 shows an example of the structure of conventionally known resist data. "Registration data name"
Is a name given to each piece of resist data, and is displayed to be used as a reference when selecting desired resist data. "Main voice setting information" is parameter information for setting the tone color of the main performance on the keyboard, etc. "Effect setting information" is parameter information for setting various effects given to the main performance, "accompaniment on (or accompaniment) "Off) setting information" is parameter information for setting whether or not to perform automatic accompaniment, and "accompaniment style number information" is parameter information for selecting an accompaniment style. Further, “end” is data indicating the end of the registration data. As described above, the registration data is roughly divided into parameters other than accompaniment-related parameters (main voice setting information, effect setting information, etc.) and accompaniment-related parameters (accompaniment on / off data, accompaniment style number, etc.).

Next, an example of concrete accompaniment style data will be briefly described with reference to FIG. Accompaniment style data is data for performing automatic accompaniment for each style,
As shown in FIG. 7, one accompaniment style data includes “intro section information”, “main section information”,
It is composed of a plurality of section information such as "fill-in section information" and "ending section information". In each section information, performance information of one measure length to several measures length is recorded in the order of performance progress. For example, "intro section information" records information for intro performance that matches the accompaniment style, and "main section information" records information for main performance that matches the accompaniment style.
The “accompaniment style number” is the same data as the accompaniment style number in the registration data shown in FIG. 6, and a different number is assigned as an identifier for each accompaniment style. The "accompaniment style number" included in the selected resist data refers to the accompaniment style data corresponding to the number.

[0004]

In an electronic musical instrument, a plurality of accompaniment style data are stored in a nonvolatile manner (that is, preset) in advance, and any accompaniment style is stored according to the accompaniment style number in the selected resist data. Style data is read. However, in this case, only the accompaniment style data stored in a nonvolatile manner in advance can be referred to from the registration data. Therefore, in order to make the accompaniment styles of the automatic accompaniment more diverse, accompaniment style data newly created in the RAM or the accompaniment style data stored in the external storage medium (for example, a floppy disk) is stored in the registration data. It may be referred to by style number. However, in such a case, if the newly created accompaniment style data is deleted arbitrarily (or when the main unit is powered off) or if an external storage medium is not installed, the selected registration data It may happen that the accompaniment style data according to the content of is not read. Therefore, it is possible that the accompaniment style is not set normally (that is, as the user intended). As one method for solving this problem, for example, when the accompaniment style data is deleted, all the registration data that refers to the deleted accompaniment style data is searched and the target registration data is automatically searched. A possible method is to delete it. However, since a large amount of resist data is stored in the electronic musical instrument, a large amount of time is spent in the search process according to this method. While the search process is being performed, other operations such as selecting another resist data cannot be performed, so that the waiting time during the search process is very troublesome for the user. For this reason, conventionally, it has been impossible to create a variety of resist data that can refer to accompaniment styles other than the accompaniment styles that are fixedly stored in advance. Therefore, there is a problem that the accompaniment style that the registration data can refer to is limited, and it is not possible to set the registration data with various kinds.

According to the present invention, various types of registration data can be used by allowing the accompaniment style data of any type to be referred to by the registration data without inconvenience. An object of the present invention is to provide a performance setting data selection device capable of promptly setting registration data.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a hardware block diagram showing the overall configuration of an electronic musical instrument incorporating a performance setting data selection device according to the present invention. This electronic musical instrument is controlled by the CPU 1. In the CPU 1, the ROM 2, the RAM 3, the key pressing detection circuit 4, the manipulator detection circuit 5, the display circuit 6, the external storage device 7, the tone generator device 8, and the M are provided to the CPU 1 via the data and address bus 1D.
IDI interface 9, communication interface 10
Are connected. The electronic musical instrument may have hardware other than these, but here, the case where the minimum necessary resources are used will be described.

The CPU 1 performs processing based on various programs and data stored in the ROM 2 and RAM 3, or various programs and data loaded from the external storage device 7. As the external storage device 7, a floppy disk (FD) drive, a hard disk (HD) drive, a CD-ROM drive, a magneto-optical disk (MO) drive, a ZIP drive, a PD drive, a DVD, etc. are used. The external storage medium used by these drives may store various programs and various data including accompaniment style data and registration data.

The read only memory 2 (ROM) is a CP
It stores various programs and various data executed or referred to by U1. For example, accompaniment style data, resist data, etc. are stored in advance in the ROM 2 (that is, preset). Random access memory 3 (RAM) is used for performance information and CP
The U1 temporarily stores various data and tables generated when the program is executed by the U1, and is used as a register, a flag, a data memory, a table, or the like, to which a predetermined address area is allocated. Further, instead of storing the operation program and various data in the ROM 2, various data and an arbitrary operation program may be stored in the external storage device 7 such as a CD-ROM drive. The operation program and various data stored in the external storage device 7 can be transferred and stored in the RAM 3 or the like. As a result, new installation and version upgrade of the operation program can be easily performed. Further, the operation program and various data may be transferred and stored in the RAM 3 or the like from another MIDI device 9A or the like via the MIDI interface 9. In this way, various data such as accompaniment style data and registration data fetched from the external storage device 7, or various data such as accompaniment style data and registration data created by the user are stored in a predetermined area of the RAM 3. The keyboard 4A has a plurality of keys for selecting the pitch of a musical tone, and has a key switch corresponding to each key. The key-depression detection circuit 4 detects pressing and releasing of each key on the keyboard 4A and produces a detection output.

The operator means 5A comprises keys and switches for setting various parameters. In this embodiment, switches such as a resist selection mode switch, a main voice setting switch group, an effect setting switch group, a style reproduction switch, a style stop switch, a section changeover switch, and various editing switches are provided.

The tone generator 8 is capable of simultaneously generating musical tone signals on a plurality of channels, and a data and address bus 1D.
The performance data given via the input is input and a tone signal is generated based on this information. The sound source device 8 has a configuration in which musical tone signals are simultaneously generated on a plurality of channels,
It may be one in which a plurality of tone generation channels are formed by using one circuit in a time division manner, or one tone generation channel may be constituted by one circuit. Any tone signal generation method may be used in the tone generator 8. The tone signal output from the sound source device 8 is generated by a sound system 8A including an amplifier and a speaker. In this embodiment, it is assumed that the tone generator 8 includes an effect circuit (not shown) for imparting various effects to the tone signal.
Of course, the effect circuit may be provided separately from the sound source device 8. The timer 1A generates a tempo clock pulse for counting time intervals and setting a tempo when reproducing music information. The frequency of this tempo clock pulse is adjusted by a tempo switch (not shown). The tempo clock pulse from timer 1A is the CPU
1 is given as an interrupt instruction to CPU1

In this case, the operation program for implementing the present invention, various data, etc. are provided to the user while being stored in a storage medium readable by a computer or an electronic musical instrument, such as a CD-ROM or a floppy disk. You may.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of a flowchart of a main process performed by the above-described electronic musical instrument. The CPU 1 shown in FIG. 1 operates according to this main processing.
This main processing is started at the same time when the main power supply of the electronic musical instrument is turned on, and is ended when the main power supply is turned off. An operation example of the main process will be described below with reference to the flowchart of FIG. First, in the first step S1, initial setting is performed. In the initial setting, the contents of the registers and buffers in the RAM 3 shown in FIG. 2 are initialized (that is, cleared, etc.), or the main body panel is set (that is, a plurality of parameters such as tone control and accompaniment are set). Perform initialization etc. Specifically, the contents of the list buffer are reset, or the initial screen is displayed on the liquid crystal screen 6A. The contents of the list buffer will be described in the corresponding processing. When the initial setting is completed, it is next determined whether or not the registration selection mode is started through the user's operation (step S2). That is, it is determined whether or not the "registration selection mode switch" on the panel is turned on by the user. If there is a start instruction operation of the registration selection mode (that is, an ON operation of the "registration selection mode switch") (YES), the registration selection mode is entered and a later-described list display process is performed (step S3). Instruct to start registration selection mode (that is,
If the "registration selection mode switch" is not turned on (NO), the process jumps to step S5 and the registration selection mode is not changed. The resist selection mode is a mode for performing a process for selecting the resist data to be used this time from a plurality of resist data, and the transition to the resist selection mode is performed by a predetermined switch (“Registration selection mode switch”) Will be held in. In the resist selection mode of the present embodiment, the user can arbitrarily select the resist data from the list of resist data names displayed on the liquid crystal screen 6A by the later-described list display processing (step S3). Along with the selection of the registration data by the user, the main body panel setting state according to the selected registration data, that is, various parameter settings relating to automatic accompaniment and the like are performed (step S4). For example, as parameter setting related to automatic accompaniment, a process of writing accompaniment style data based on the accompaniment style number in the registration data to the read buffer of the RAM 3 is performed. When performing automatic accompaniment,
Automatic accompaniment is performed based on the accompaniment style data written in the read buffer.

In step S5, editing processing such as deletion of accompaniment style data or registration data, new creation, and content change is performed. That is, the user uses the main body RAM3
It is possible to add (or delete) accompaniment style data or registration data in the RAM 3, or change the contents of the accompaniment style data or registration data in the RAM 3. Therefore, since the user can create more diverse accompaniment style data and registration data, various parameter settings can be easily added to the automatic accompaniment. Then, when this editing process and the like are completed, "other processes" are performed (step S6). The "other processing" is, for example, processing such as reproduction stop of accompaniment style data, switching of reproduction sections, and manual setting of various panels. When other processing is completed, it is detected whether or not an instruction operation for ending the main processing, that is, whether or not the main power source of the electronic musical instrument main body has been turned off, and if there is a main power source off operation (YES in step S7). Ends the main process. Otherwise, if there is no main power-off operation (NO in step S7), the process returns to step S2 and the main process is repeated.

FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an embodiment of a flowchart of the list display processing (see step S3 shown in FIG. 2) performed in the main processing. However, the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 is a flowchart relating to the case where the external storage medium is not attached to the external storage device 7 shown in FIG.
That is, in the process, only the accompaniment style data in the ROM 2 and the RAM 3 is referred to. As described above, the user selects the resist data from the resist data names displayed on the liquid crystal screen 6A,
Various parameters related to automatic accompaniment can be set. The list display process is a process of displaying a list of registration data names on the liquid crystal screen 6A. First, one piece of resist data in the main body ROM 2 and RAM 3 is sequentially referred to (step S11). Next, it is determined whether or not the accompaniment style data corresponding to the referred registration data is recorded in the ROM 2 or the RAM 3 (step S12). When the corresponding accompaniment style data is recorded in the ROM 2 or the RAM 3 (YES), the resist data name of the referred resist data is added to the list buffer (step S1).
3). Corresponding accompaniment style data is ROM2 or RA
If it is not recorded in M3 (NO), the process of step S13 is jumped. That is, no addition is made to the list buffer. Thus, until all the registration data are referred to (that is, until YES in step S14), the steps S11 to S
The processes up to 13 are repeated. After referring to all the resist data (YES in step S14), a list of the resist data is displayed on the liquid crystal screen according to the contents of the list buffer (step S15). In this way, the accompaniment style data corresponding to the referred registration data is stored in the ROM.
2 or if it is not recorded in the RAM 3, the resist data name is not added to the list buffer. The resist data selectable by the user is only the resist data displayed on the liquid crystal screen 6A, that is, the resist data written in the list buffer. And here,
Since the registration data without the corresponding accompaniment style data is not displayed on the liquid crystal screen 6A and the user does not select the registration data without the accompaniment style data, the user can select the registration data displayed on the liquid crystal screen 6A. Therefore, various normal parameter settings can always be made.

FIG. 4 is another embodiment of the flowchart of the list display process (see step S3 shown in FIG. 2) performed in the main process. However, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, unlike the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, an external storage medium is attached to the external storage device 7 shown in FIG.
In addition to 3, the accompaniment style data in the external storage medium is referred to. Since the processing of step S21 is the same as the processing of step S11 shown in FIG. 3, description thereof will be omitted (however, if the registration data is stored in the external storage medium, that is also referred to). Next, the accompaniment style data corresponding to the referred registration data is stored in the main body (that is, ROM2 and RAM3) (step S2).
2) or whether it is recorded in the external storage medium (step S23). If it is stored in the main body (YES in step S22), the resist data name of the referred resist data is added to the list buffer (step S25). When stored in the external storage medium (NO in step S22 and YES in step S23), the accompaniment style data in the external storage medium is written in a predetermined area in the main body (for example, RAM3) (step S24). ), And the resist data name of the referred resist data is written in the list buffer (step S25). If the corresponding accompaniment style data is not recorded in either the main body or the external storage medium (that is, if both step S22 and step S23 are NO), the process jumps to step S26. Here, even when the external storage medium is not attached to the main body, steps S22 and S2 are performed.
Both 3 are judged to be NO. Thus, steps S21 to S are performed until all the registration data are referenced.
The processes up to 25 are repeated. When the reference of all the resist data is completed (YES in step S26), a list of the resist data is displayed on the liquid crystal screen 6A according to the list buffer.
The list is displayed above and the process ends.

As described above, the series of processes shown in the flowcharts of FIG. 2, FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 are controlled so that the user cannot select the registration data in which the corresponding accompaniment style data is not stored. . That is, in the registration selection mode, since only the registration data in which the corresponding accompaniment style data is stored is displayed on the liquid crystal screen 6A, the accompaniment style corresponding to the registration data selected by the user from the liquid crystal screen 6A is surely displayed. Data is recorded. In other words, the selected registration data sets various parameters according to the performance image of the user accurately, so that the user performs automatic accompaniment (or automatic performance) in which various parameters suitable for the image of the song are accurately added. can do. As described above, the user can set the resist data accurately as long as the user selects the resist data from the resist data displayed on the liquid crystal screen 6A. It is possible to easily avoid a state in which no accompaniment (or automatic performance) is executed. Also, for example,
Even if the newly created accompaniment style data is arbitrarily erased thereafter, the registration data that referred to the accompaniment style data will not be displayed on the liquid crystal screen 6A, so the user can erase it. It is possible to prevent the user from mistakenly selecting the registration data that referred to the accompaniment style data, and to create, delete, or change the accompaniment style data or the registration data with confidence. That is, the user can set various resist settings.

Next, an example of a device capable of efficiently performing the above list display processing will be described. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an embodiment of a data recording format used in the performance setting data selection device according to the present invention. In the example of FIG. 5, the accompaniment style data corresponding to each of the accompaniment styles # 1 to #n and the corresponding registration data are stored in the same memory space in some form in association with each other. The same memory space means the main body ROM2 or RA
For example, M3 or an external storage medium. In FIG. 5, each registration data is attached to the accompaniment style data of the accompaniment style number referenced by the registration data (for example, each registration data includes registration data attached to the accompaniment style data 1 Are recorded as one file). In some cases, not only one registration data item is associated with one accompaniment style data item, but also a plurality of registration data items are associated with one accompaniment style data item (Style # 3 in the figure).
Example). Also, if accompaniment style data is stored but registration data that refers to it is not present (example of style # 4 in the figure), or if concatenation style data to be referred to is not stored (registration data). There is also an example of resist data 5). Thus, there is a case where only one of the accompaniment style data and the registration data exists. Such data is generated, for example, by the user deleting accompaniment style data or registration data. When the recording format of the accompaniment style data and the register data is configured in this way, in the above list display processing, the accompaniment style corresponding to the registration data can be simply read by reading the registration data name of the registration data attached to each accompaniment style data. It becomes possible to quickly find out (search) whether or not style data is recorded.

If the recording format of FIG. 5 is used, it is sufficient to sequentially read the data of the recording format, pick up only the registration data attached to the accompaniment style data, and write it in the list buffer. Therefore, step S2 of FIG.
It is not necessary to repeat the routine of 1 to S26 for each resist data, and the processing can be made efficient by that much. For example, it is not necessary to determine the presence or absence of accompaniment style data for the registration data 5.

As described above, except that the registration data is recorded as the attached data of each accompaniment style data in the same memory space (or at consecutive recording positions in the recording area), the file name is the same for each corresponding data. Alternatively, the extensions may be different so as to establish a correspondence relationship. For example, "JAZZ1.st
As the data file name of the registration data that refers to the accompaniment style data of “y”, “JAZZ1.mdb
1 ”or“ JAZZ1.mdb2 ”. The accompaniment style data that can be referred to from the registration data is not limited to the data stored in the internal recording area of the main unit or the external storage medium installed in the main unit, but data recorded in other electronic musical instruments connected to the main unit. Alternatively, it may be data stored in an external device that can be referred to via a MIDI interface or a communication interface. In the present embodiment, a list is created using the list buffer in order to display a list of resist data names on the liquid crystal screen 6A. However, it is confirmed that accompaniment style data exists without creating this list. The registration data name of the data may be sequentially displayed on the liquid crystal screen 6A. The registration data selecting means may be a numeric keypad for inputting numerical data, a keyboard for inputting character data, or a switch or the like individually corresponding to each registration data. When a switch individually corresponding to each registration data is used as the registration data selecting means, a lamp may be provided for each switch and the selectable registration data lamp may be lit up and displayed. Further, the present invention can be implemented by enabling the selection operation of only the switches corresponding to the selectable registration data without using the display means. The performance-related parameters referred to by the registration data are not limited to accompaniment style data, but may be other data such as song data. That is, when the required song data (that is, the performance information for one song is recorded) is referred to by the song number included in the registration data, as in the embodiment in which the accompaniment style data is referred to, For resist data in which song data to be referred to is not stored, the resist data name may not be displayed in the resist data selection mode.

The electronic musical instrument is not limited to a keyboard musical instrument, but may be any type of musical instrument such as a stringed instrument, a wind instrument, or a percussion instrument. Further, in the above-described embodiment, the sound source device, the automatic performance device, and the like are described as being built in one electronic musical instrument main body, but the present invention is not limited to this, and each of them is configured separately, such as a MIDI interface and various networks. It goes without saying that the invention can be similarly applied to a device configured to connect the respective devices using the communication means. Further, it may be configured by a personal computer and application software. In this case, the processing program may be supplied from a storage medium such as a magnetic disk, an optical disk or a semiconductor memory, or may be supplied via a network.

[0026]

According to the present invention, since the registration data selected by the user is the registration data that can always perform automatic accompaniment (or automatic performance), the user can perform various registration settings. Will be able to. That is, since the user does not select performance setting data for which automatic accompaniment (or automatic performance) cannot be performed, registration data and accompaniment style data can be freely created, deleted, or changed. . In other words, various playing modes can be freely set without being aware of the presence of registration data and accompaniment style data. Further, since each registration data is recorded in the common memory space in a form of being attached to the accompaniment style data of the accompaniment style number referred to by the registration data, the user can accurately and promptly perform the registration setting. effective.
