Description

  The present invention relates to a performance operation training device and a program for performance operation training processing.

Conventionally, various techniques for performing a keyboard instrument more efficiently have been proposed. For example, in Patent Document 1, a light emitting element is provided corresponding to each key, and a light emitting element corresponding to a key to be depressed when playing a designated song is sequentially turned on in accordance with a timing at which the key is to be depressed. Thus, a configuration is disclosed in which the performer recognizes which key should be pressed at which timing.
By applying such a configuration, the performer can recognize the key pressing order and key pressing timing for performing the music, and can perform the music faster.

Furthermore, Patent Document 2 discloses a configuration that can display not only the key pressing order and key pressing timing but also the fingers used for key pressing. By using such a configuration, it becomes possible to recognize a fingering operation necessary for the performance of a song, and it becomes possible to practice a more serious performance more efficiently.
Japanese Patent Publication No. 01-053469 Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 03-089467

  The performance training apparatus having the configuration as disclosed in Patent Documents 1 and 2 is extremely effective if it is intended to be able to perform only the music given as a performance practice subject. However, even if a song given as this task can be played, there is no guarantee that other songs with different key pressing order, timing, and fingering can be played.

In particular, with regard to fingering and finger usage necessary for performance, there are many cases where strengths and weaknesses are divided according to the performer or the designated song.
This is due to individual differences in the motor ability of each finger. That is, some people are very poor at moving the middle finger, while others are not good at moving the ring finger.
To play a keyboard instrument, you must be able to press all your fingers freely. If you are not good at using specific fingers, your performance will improve unless you overcome them. do not do.
In order to overcome this poor finger operation, it is only necessary to improve the exercise ability by moving only the weak finger. However, it is nothing but painful and long-lasting to train to move only the poor fingers monotonously without meaning. For this reason, the device which can aim at the improvement of an athletic ability, without being conscious of much that it is training of such a finger was desired.

In addition, playing a keyboard instrument using fingers has proven to be very effective in activating the brain.
This is because the brain recognizes which finger has to be moved and commands the finger to move it, which in turn stimulates the brain. The more you do, the more stimulation you give to the brain.

  In particular, of all the fingers, one finger keeps the state as it is and only the other fingers perform designated movements, not only helps to improve the exercise ability of each finger, It is known that a large stimulus is given to the brain and it is very effective for brain activation.

  It is an object of the present invention to provide a performance training apparatus that can improve the exercise ability of each finger necessary for playing a keyboard instrument and is also useful for activating the brain.

In order to achieve the above object, the performance operation training apparatus of the present invention designates a combination of at least two keys from the depressed keys in the training mode processing, and designates each of the designated two keys at a predetermined timing. When it is determined that one of the at least two keys instructed by the first instructing means and at least two keys instructed by the first instructing means has been released. Determines whether a key that has been pressed by a key other than this one is not released and keeps the key pressed, and then determines whether the other key has been released. If it is determined that the key has been released, the first determining means for determining whether a key pressed other than the other key is not released and keeps the key pressed state; After completion of the discrimination by the discriminating means, An instruction control means for instructing the first instruction means to at least another two key combinations other than the two key combinations, and an instruction for all of the at least two key combinations by the first instruction means After that, when it is determined by the first determination means that the key has been released, a key pressed other than the key that has been released cannot be held without being released. A specifying means for specifying a combination of two keys, and a second determination for determining whether or not a plurality of predetermined keys corresponding to each finger are pressed on the keyboard in the music guide mode processing And the two keys specified by the specifying means from among the plurality of keys after it is determined by the second determining means that the plurality of predetermined keys are all depressed. Combination And key selection means for selecting, in a state in which a plurality of keys predetermined by the second discriminating means is determined that all are depressed, either of the two keys selected by the key selection unit A second instructing means for instructing one of them at random, and instructing sound generation each time only a key instructed by the second instructing means is pressed out of the plurality of pressed keys. It further comprises reading means for sequentially reading events from a storage means for storing song data comprising a series of events, and sending the read events to connected sound source means.

The performance operation training apparatus further includes a key pressing instruction means for instructing a plurality of predetermined keys corresponding to each finger on the keyboard, and the second determination means includes the key pressing instruction. It is desirable to determine whether or not all of the plurality of keys indicated by the instruction means have been pressed.

Moreover, the performance operation training device, after instructing all combinations of the two keys by the first instructing means, by changing the predetermined timing instructed by the first instruction means, the It is desirable to further include a control unit that causes the first instruction unit, the second determination unit, and the instruction control unit to repeatedly perform the same operation.

And it is desirable for the said control means to advance the said predetermined | prescribed timing whenever it repeats performing the said same operation | movement.

Further, the performance operation training processing program of the present invention designates a combination of at least two keys from the pressed keys in the training mode processing to the computer, and designates each of the two designated keys at a predetermined timing. If it is determined that one of the at least two keys instructed in step 1 and at least two keys instructed in the first instruction step has been released, and it is determined that the key has been released Determines whether a key that has been pressed by a key other than this one is not released and keeps the key pressed, and then determines whether the other key has been released. If it is determined that the key has been released in the first step, a first determination step for determining whether a key pressed other than the other key is kept released without being released, and the first determination step. According to the determination step After the determination completion, the command control step of instructing a combination of at least another two keys other than the combination of the two keys that the instructed in the first instruction step, said by the first instruction step at least 2 After instructing all of the key combinations, if it is determined in the first determination step that the key has been released, a key that has been pressed other than the key that has been released is not released. Whether a plurality of predetermined keys corresponding to each finger are pressed on the keyboard in the specific step of identifying the combination of the two keys that cannot maintain the state of the above and the music guide mode process a second determining step of determining whether, after a plurality of keys said predetermined is judged that all has been depressed, the two from among the plurality of keys is the specific A key selection step of selecting a combination of, in a state in which a plurality of keys said predetermined are determined all being depressed, the instructs the random any one of the two keys that the selected Each time only the key instructed in step 2 and the key instructed in the second instruction step among the plurality of depressed keys is depressed, music data consisting of a series of events instructing pronunciation is obtained. And a reading step of sequentially reading the events from the storage means for storing and sending the read events to the connected sound source means.

  In the present invention, first, the performer is made to press all the predetermined keys corresponding to each finger on the keyboard, and it is determined that all the predetermined keys are pressed. Thereafter, a combination of two keys is selected from the plurality of keys, each of the two selected keys is designated at a predetermined timing, and each of the designated two keys is released at the designated timing. It is determined whether or not it has been locked. After completion of this determination, another two key combinations other than the selected two key combinations are selected, and after all the two key combinations are selected, they are released at a designated timing. Identify two keys that cannot be locked. Further, each time at least one of the two specified keys is pressed, events constituting the music data stored in the storage means are sequentially read, and the read events are sent to the connected sound source means. Send it.

  As a result, the performer can recognize which finger's athletic ability needs to be improved, and repeat this series of actions to improve the poor athletic ability of the finger. And by simply playing a song that best suits the athletic ability of the poor fingers, training can be performed without special awareness of weak finger luck, etc., greatly increasing the psychological burden on the performer. To reduce.

  Furthermore, it is possible to give stimulation to the brain by repeating a series of actions such that one of the fingers holds the key pressed state and only the other fingers are released. It becomes possible to promote the activation of the brain.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an internal configuration of a keyboard instrument to which a performance training apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention is applied.

  In FIG. 1, a CPU 1, a program ROM 2, a work RAM 3, a song data ROM 4, a display unit 5, a keyboard 6, an LED group 7, a SW unit 8 and a sound source 9 are connected by a common bus line. The CPU 1 performs processing of the entire keyboard instrument based on the program stored in the program ROM 2. In addition to the program for controlling the processing performed by the CPU 1, the program ROM 2 also stores a key number for indicating a key to be depressed with all fingers first.

  The work RAM 3 temporarily stores data necessary for processing performed by the CPU 1, and the data structure thereof includes initial finger position data F (1) to F (5), a timer as shown in FIG. It has an area for storing time data T (1) to T (a), and further area data AREA (1) to AREA (a).

The initial finger position data F (1) to F (5) stores the key number to be pressed by each finger when the key is first pressed on the keyboard using all the right fingers. It is transferred from the ROM 2.
1 to 5 represent finger numbers. In the present embodiment, the right hand thumb is 1, the right hand index finger is 2, the right hand middle finger is 3, the right hand ring finger is 4, and the right hand little finger is 5.

In the present invention, the timer time data T (1) to T (a) is instructed to sequentially release any two fingers while all the right fingers are depressed. This is an area for storing operation timing.
In the present embodiment, since the key release operation is configured to be performed a plurality of times while advancing the timing, a plurality of types of timer time data are prepared.

  Area data AREA (1) to AREA (a) are provided corresponding to each area of the timer time data described above. If the key release operation cannot be performed at the instructed timing, the area data are pressed by these two fingers. This is an area for storing key number combinations.

The song data ROM 4 stores a plurality of song data (1) to (M) to be practiced.
FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the data structure of the song data ROM 4. The stored music data is composed of a combination of an event indicating a key depression (note-on) and a time indicating an occurrence timing between the events.
Each event includes an event type for identifying the type of event (key press, key release), a note number (key number) indicating the key pressed or key released, and velocity.

  Returning to FIG. 1, the display unit 5 is composed of a display element such as a liquid crystal. In this embodiment, the display unit 5 displays fingers corresponding to two keys that could not be released as instructed.

  The keyboard 6 is used for performance operation, and each LED of the LED group 7 is arranged corresponding to each key of the keyboard 6. By turning on this LED, the player is prompted to press the key on which the lighted LED is arranged, and by turning off the LED, the player is prompted to release the key.

  The SW unit 8 includes a switch for switching the operation mode of the keyboard instrument, and the sound source 9 generates / stops a musical tone signal based on a note-on / note-off event generated by pressing / releasing the key 6 The generated tone signal is supplied to the sound generation circuit 10 to generate a tone.

Next, operation | movement of this apparatus is demonstrated using the flowchart of CPU1 of FIGS.
FIG. 4 is an overall flowchart. First, when the power is turned on, initialization processing is performed, and the contents of the registers in the CPU 1 and the work RAM 3 are initialized (step S401). Next, the process proceeds to step S402, where it is determined whether or not the current mode is the normal mode. If the current mode is the normal mode, the normal mode process (step S403) is executed.

If it is not the normal mode, it is determined whether or not it is the training mode (step S404), and if it is the training mode, the training mode process (step S405) is executed.
If it is not the training mode, it is determined whether or not it is the guide mode (step S406). If it is the training mode, the guide mode process (step S407) is executed.
When the mode is not the guide mode, after the execution of the normal mode process (step S403), the training mode process (step S405), and the guide mode process (step S407), the process returns to step S402 again.

FIG. 5 is a subroutine of the normal mode process (step S403) of FIG.
First, it is determined whether or not any key on the keyboard 6 has changed (S501). If the key change is ON (key pressing), the process proceeds to step S502, a note-on event is generated based on the key number of the key pressed, the key pressing strength (velocity), etc., and the process proceeds to step S503. Send to sound source 9.
If the key change is off (key release), the process proceeds to step S504, where a note-off event is generated based on the key number of the pressed key, and the process proceeds to step S503 to be sent to the sound source 9. .
The sound source 9 starts or stops the generation of the tone signal based on the sent event.

  After the process of step S503, or when it is determined that there is no key change in step S501, it is determined whether or not a mode change instruction such as an operation of the SW unit 8 has been given (step S505). If there is a mode change instruction, a mode change process corresponding to the instruction is performed (step S506), and this process is exited. If there is no instruction to change the mode, the process is exited as it is.

6 to 9 show a subroutine of the training mode process (step S405) of FIG.
First, the contents of AREA () in the work RAM 3 are cleared (step S601). Next, clear flags CLF1 and CLF2 are set to 0 (step S602), and 1 is set to the pointer a (step S603).

Then, the initial finger position data stored in the program ROM 2 is stored in the areas F (1) to F (5) in the work RAM 3 (step S604).
In the present embodiment, the keyboard keys are first depressed with all the right hand fingers. For this reason, the initial finger position data is composed of the key numbers of the five keys to be pressed.
Next, the LEDs of the LED group 7 corresponding to the keys having the key numbers stored in F (1) to F (5) in the work RAM 3 are turned on (step S605).

  Then, it is determined whether or not all the keys instructed by the lighting of the LED have been depressed (step S606). If it is determined that all keys are depressed, the process proceeds to step S607, and the value of the pointer n is set to 1. Next, 1 is set as the value of the pointer m (step S608).

  Next, the process proceeds to step S609 in FIG. 7, and the LED corresponding to the key of the key number stored in F (n) is turned off, and the timer in the CPU 1 is started (step S610).

Thereafter, it is determined whether or not the time counted by the timer has passed the timer time (a) stored in the work RAM 3 designated by using the pointer a as an argument (step S611). If it is determined that it has not elapsed, it is determined whether or not the key of the key number stored in F (n) has been released (step S612). If it is determined that the key has been released, this F ( It is determined whether or not a key pressed other than the key corresponding to n) is kept pressed without being released (step S613). If the key-pressed state is maintained here, that is, the key whose LED is turned off is released, and other keys that are pressed remain in the pressed state, the flag CLF1 is changed from 0 to 1. Change (step S614).
On the other hand, even if the key whose LED is not turned off is not released or has been released, when another key being pressed is released, the process returns to step S611.

  If it is determined in step S611 that the time counted by the timer has passed the timer time (a), the corresponding LED corresponding to the F (n) key whose corresponding LED is turned off is turned on again. (Step S615). Subsequently, the process proceeds to step S616, where the LED corresponding to the key of the key number stored in F (m) is turned off, and the timer is cleared and started (step S617).

Thereafter, it is determined whether or not the time counted by the timer has passed the timer time (a) (step S618). If it is determined that the key has not elapsed, it is determined whether the key having the key number stored in F (m) has been released (step S619). If it is determined that the key has been released, this F ( It is determined whether or not a key pressed other than the key corresponding to m) is kept released without being released (step S620). If the key-pressed state is maintained, that is, if the key whose LED is turned off is released and the other pressed keys remain pressed, the flag CLF2 is changed from 0 to 1. Change (step S621).
When the time counted by the timer has not passed the timer time (a), even if the key whose LED is not turned off is not released or is released, another key is being pressed. If the key is also released, the process returns to step S618.

  On the other hand, if the time counted by the timer has passed the timer time (a), the LED corresponding to the key of F (m) is turned on again (step S622), and at least one of the flags CLF1 or CLF2 is 0? It is determined whether or not (step S623). If it is 0, the process proceeds to step S624, and F (n) and F (m) are stored in the area of AREA (a) in the work RAM 3 specified by the pointer a as an argument. Then, CLF1 and CLF2 are returned to 0 (step S625).

Thereafter, the pointer m is incremented (step S626), and it is determined whether or not the value of m matches the value of n (step S627). If they match, the process returns to step S626. If they do not match, it is determined whether the value of m exceeds 5 (step S628). If not, the process returns to step S609, and the processes from step S609 to S628 are repeated.
If the value of m exceeds 5, the pointer n is incremented (step S629), and it is determined whether the value of n does not match the value of m (step S630). If they match, the process returns to step S629. If they do not match, it is determined whether or not the value of n exceeds 5 (step S631). If not, the process returns to step S608, and the processes from step S608 to S631 are repeated.

By repeating the above-described processing, that is, when n = 1 and m = 1 for the first time, the combination of thumb → thumb, then when n = 1 and m = 2, the combination of thumb → index finger, and n When = 1 and m = 3, the combination of thumb → middle finger is sequentially determined. In this way, it is determined whether or not the key release operation of the combination of two types of fingers is performed at a predetermined timing.
That is, it is determined whether or not the key release operation has been performed at a predetermined timing for all combinations of two fingers of the right hand used for key pressing, and the combination of fingers that could not be stored is stored in AREA (a). Is done.

  If it is determined in step S631 that the value of n exceeds 5, the value of the pointer a is incremented (step S632), and the incremented value of a is stored in a predetermined number, that is, the work RAM 3. It is determined whether or not the number of timer times T (a) is exceeded (step S633). If not, the process returns to S607 and repeats the processes from S607 to S633. That is, the above process is repeated by changing the timer time to another stored timer time. The timer time T (a) stored in the work RAM 3 is shorter as the value of a increases, and the key release timing instruction becomes shorter and faster. It is configured to increase.

  When it is determined that the value a exceeds the number of timer times T (a) stored in the work RAM 3, all the LEDs corresponding to the keys F (1) to F (5) are turned off (step S634). Inform the performer that this performance training has ended.

  Thereafter, 1 is set to the pointer a (step S635), and it is determined whether or not n and m data at this time exists in the AREA (a) of the work RAM 3 using the pointer a as an argument. (Step S636). If there is no data, the value of a is incremented (step S637), and it is determined whether the value of a exceeds a predetermined number, that is, the number of AREA (a) stored in the work RAM 3 (step S637). If it does not exceed S638), the process returns to S636 again.

Thus, if data exists in AREA (a), the data n and m are displayed on the display unit 5 (step S639).
This data shows the combination of two fingers that could not be released with the slowest key release and the difficulty of playing, in other words, for the performer, the combination of the two fingers. Can clearly recognize that it is the weakest and most difficult to train.
In this embodiment, the key release timing is observed. However, after the key release instruction is given by the LED, the key press instruction is given, the reaction time from the key release to the key press of the performer is counted, and the time is predetermined. You may use the method which makes a thing which is not good at a thing larger than time.

FIG. 13 is a diagram illustrating an example of display on the display unit 5.
In the figure, n = 1 and m = 3 are shown, and a thumb corresponding to n = 1 and a middle finger corresponding to m = 3 are identified and displayed. The arrow display indicates that the operation is in the order of thumb → middle finger.

Returning to FIG. 9 again, if it is determined in step S628 that there is no data in the area AREA (a), the display unit 5 is displayed that there is no data (step S640).
After these displays are made, it is determined whether or not a switch operation for resuming the process is performed again by the SW unit 8 (step S641). If it is determined that the operation is performed, the process returns to step S601 to resume the process. To do.
If it is determined that the resuming switch operation has not been performed, it is determined whether or not a mode change instruction has been issued (step S642). If there is a mode change instruction, a mode change process corresponding to the instruction is performed (step S643), and this process is exited. If there is no instruction to change the mode, the process returns to S641.

10 to 12 are subroutines of the music guide mode process (step S407) of FIG. In this flow, in order for the performer to mainly train the movements of the finger combinations that are not good at the music player, the music data ROM 4 is searched for and practiced a song that contains a large number of finger combinations that the player is not good at. . The performer can perform a combination of unfamiliar fingers by playing a song that includes this weak finger movement in a pseudo one-key play described later, or by performing fingering that should be used in the song. It is possible to train while having fun and concentrating at a high frequency.
In FIG. 10, it is first determined whether or not a music piece selection operation has been performed by the SW unit 8 (step S1001). If it is determined that a song selection operation has been performed, the song number input by the SW unit 8 is stored in the register M (step S1002).

  If it is determined that the music selection operation is not performed, the process proceeds to step S1003, and it is determined whether or not a music search operation is performed. If it is determined that a search operation has been performed, 1 is first set to the pointer a (step S1004). Next, it is determined whether or not the data n and m, that is, the finger number required for training exists in the AERA (a) of the work RAM 3 designated with a as an argument (step S1005). If it is determined that it does not exist, a is incremented (step S1006). Then, it is determined whether the value of a does not exceed a predetermined number, that is, the number of AREA () (step S1007), and if not, the process returns to step S1005.

  In this way, when it is determined that the data n and m, that is, the number of the finger that requires training exists in AERA (a), the process proceeds to step S1008, and this combination of finger numbers is now stored in AERA (a). Determine whether there are multiple. If it is determined here that there are a plurality, any one is selected in step S1009, and if there are no more, the process proceeds directly to step S1010.

In step S1010, a song having the largest number of combinations of finger numbers selected from AREA (a) is selected from the song data stored in the song data ROM 4.
Each event constituting the stored music data includes a finger number as shown in FIG. Therefore, it is determined whether the combination of the finger number included in each event and the finger number included in the subsequent event is the same as the combination of finger numbers selected from AREA (a). If the number of data in the data is counted, it is possible to search for music data having the largest number of combinations.
The music number of the music searched in this way is stored in the register M (step S1011).

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S1003 that the music search operation has not been performed, or if the value of the pointer a exceeds a predetermined number in step S1007, it is determined whether or not a mode change instruction has been given (step S1012). . If there is a mode change instruction, a mode change process corresponding to the instruction is performed (step S1013), and this process is exited. If there is no instruction to change the mode, the process returns to S1001.

After the song number is stored in the register M in step S1002 or S1011, the process proceeds to step S1014 in FIG. 11, and the initial values stored in the program ROM 2 are stored in the areas F (1) to F (5) in the work RAM 3. Store finger position data.
Next, the LEDs of the LED group 7 corresponding to the keys having the key numbers stored in F (1) to F (5) in the work RAM 3 are turned on (step S1015).

  Then, it is determined whether or not all the keys instructed by the lighting of the LED have been depressed (step S1016). Here, if it is determined that the performer has pressed all the fingers of the right hand and all of the instructed keys have been pressed, the process proceeds to step S1017, and once F (1) to F ( The LED corresponding to the key having the key number stored in 5) is turned off. Further, the head address of the song data designated by the song number M is set in the address pointer AD for reading the data in the song data ROM 5 (step S1018).

  Subsequently, data representing 0 or 1 is randomly generated (step S1019). Here, it is determined whether the randomly generated data is 0 (step S1020), and if it is 0, the LED of the key having the key number F (n) is turned on (step S1021). Thereafter, the performer performs key pressing on the keyboard and determines whether or not the key pressing is for the F (n) key (steps S1022 and S1023). If it is determined that the key has been pressed, the LED of the key having the key number F (n) is turned on (step S1024). Otherwise, the processes in steps S1022 and S1023 are repeated.

  On the other hand, if the randomly generated data is 1, the LED of the key having the key number F (m) is turned on (step S1025). After that, the performer performs a key depression on the keyboard, and determines whether or not the key depression is for the F (n) key (steps S1026 and S1027). If it is determined that the key has been depressed, the LED of the key having the key number F (n) is turned on (step S1028). Otherwise, the processes in steps S1026 and S1027 are repeated. The aim of using random data to turn on the LED is to make it impossible to predict which finger the player should press next, and to activate the brain by increasing the degree of concentration with respect to keyboard operation, and effective training This is because

As described above, when the F (n) or F (m) key indicated by the lighting of the LED is depressed, the address pointer AD is advanced (step S1029), and the AD is read from the song data ROM 5 by this AD. It is determined what the song data is (step S1030). If the read data is time, the process returns to step S1029 and AD is advanced again. If it is an event, the process proceeds to step S1031, the read event data is sent to the sound source 9, and the process returns to step S1014.
On the other hand, if the read data is END indicating the end, this means that the reading of the music data has been completed, and the processing returns to S1001 again.

Here, n and m are finger numbers that need to improve athletic ability, and F (n) and F (m) are keys to be pressed with fingers having n and m finger numbers. Each time the F (n) or F (m) is pressed as instructed, events included in the selected music data are sequentially read out and sounded.
In other words, training is performed by moving a finger that is determined to require athletic performance as instructed, and at the same time, using this poor finger, playing a song with a simple technique such as so-called one-key play. Is done.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, first, the performer is caused to press all the predetermined keys corresponding to the fingers on the keyboard 6, and all the predetermined keys are pressed. After determining that the two keys are selected, a combination of two keys is selected from the plurality of keys, each of the two selected keys is designated at a predetermined timing, and each of the designated two keys is designated. It is determined whether or not the key is released at the designated timing. Then, after the discrimination is completed, another two key combinations other than the selected two key combinations are selected, and after all the two key combinations are selected, the discrimination result is displayed on the display unit 5. To display.

  As a result, the performer can recognize which finger's athletic ability needs to be improved, and repeat this series of actions to improve the poor athletic ability of the finger. Furthermore, it is possible to give stimulation to the brain by repeating a series of actions such that one of the fingers holds the key pressed state and only the other fingers are released. It becomes possible to promote the activation of the brain.

Further, in the present embodiment, in order to improve the motor ability of the finger that is determined to be poor at the operation, the combination of the poor finger operation is most often included from a plurality of pieces of song data prepared in advance. By searching for song data and playing the searched song as if performing a performance like a one-key play, training for improving the ability of finger luck such as poor finger performance becomes possible.
As a result, it is possible to perform training without special attention to improving the ability of finger luck, etc., simply by playing the searched music, and the psychological burden on the performer is greatly reduced.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, it is a configuration that performs training only for the right finger, but it can also be applied to training for the left finger, and of course, it can also be applied to training for all fingers of both hands. It is.

  Furthermore, in the present embodiment, two types of finger combinations are selected, but naturally three or more types of finger combinations or chord combinations may be used.
