たものである。 A music data file and a storage device are also attached to the electronic computer of each slave station, and performance equipment including a music demodulator and a speaker is connected thereto. The electronic computer sends request information indicating the desired song to the master station when necessary, records the music information sent from the master station in its own music data file, and records the music of the song selected from the data file. The information is converted into performance information and provided to the music demodulator, and when making the above request information, usage information indicating the number of pieces of music to be performed and the number of times the local station has performed is sent to the master station. The music data file of each slave station does not need to have the same capacity as the master station; a capacity of about 50 to 200 songs is sufficient. The performance information given to the music demodulator from the above-mentioned computer is information that represents the pitch, strength, timbre, etc. of each note that makes up a piece of music. It is expanded to be equal to the song.

ータフアイルと全く同じである。Function: A huge number of songs are recorded in the music data file of the master station in the form of music information. It is a form in which the musical note symbols shown in the table are further compressed in time, regardless of the length of each note or the length of the pause between notes. This music information includes
In some cases, it is just an encoded version of a five-line paper score, but it is also possible to include advanced performance technical information such as the accent of each note, minute changes in dynamics, and changes in tempo. The music information recorded in the music data file of the slave station is exactly the same as the music data file of the master station.

より実際の音楽として演奏される。 The slave station 2A has an electronic computer 11, to which a music data file 12, an input device 13, a memory 14, a display 15, and a communication terminal 16 are attached. The data file 12 can store music information for several dozen songs, and the storage device 14 stores the list information of the songs in the data file 5 of the master station 1, the names of the songs played by the own station, and the number of times they have been played. electronic computer 11
In addition to controlling the transmission and reception of the contents of the data file 12 and storage device 14 to and from the master station 1, the controller also controls music information, including the length of each note making up the music and the pause period between notes. Converts to performance information that is expanded so that the length is equal to the actual music. This performance information is restored to a music signal by a music demodulator 17, amplified by an amplifier 18, and then played by a speaker 19 as actual music.

It has 0a to 20n. Each oscillator 20a to 20n
The oscillation waves are transmitted through variable filters 21a to 21n, respectively.
After passing through the modulators 22a to 22n, the signals are combined in a combining circuit 23 to become a music signal. During this time,
Variable filters 21a-21n and modulators 22a-
22n is controlled by performance information from the electronic computer 11. In addition, if necessary, oscillators 20a to 20
The oscillation frequency of n is also controlled by performance information.

望む曲及び整理番号を知ることができる。 The slave station inputs the song catalog information held by the master station to the input device 13 if it is stored in the storage device 14.
The catalog information can be displayed on the display 15 by simply operating , and if it is not stored in the memory 14, a signal is sent to the master station to transfer the catalog information from the master station memory 7 to the slave station memory 14. Since it can be displayed by the above-mentioned operation, it is possible to know the desired song and serial number from the display.

Based on this, the number of performances of each song is accumulated for each slave station, and the accumulated value is stored in the memory 7, while a group of information as shown in FIG. 3 is returned to the slave station. Here, 30 is a start code group necessary for transmission, 31 is encoded music information of the requested song extracted from the music data file 5, 32 is the above-mentioned catalog information,
33 is a code group for error correction or detection, and 34 is a code group indicating the start of transmission, which is generally used for music information 3.
The time required for 1 is several seconds, and the time required for other information is within 1 second.

こともできる。 Note that if there is no particular request for selection of a music performance at the slave station, such as BGM broadcasting, the master station can also send the specified tune to the slave station by a request operation. Furthermore, the program of the slave station computer 11 is set so that when a certain number of times a song has been played at the slave station reaches a certain number, the music information of the same song in the data file 12 is automatically deleted. It is also possible to keep it. Furthermore, in order to prevent music information from being stolen, a dark code can also be used.

1 performs both the function of reading out the music information of a designated track in the data file 12 and the function of converting the read music information into performance information during performance. However, a music demodulation electronic computer having a function of converting music information into performance information is separately provided, and the electronic computer 11 supplies the music information read from the data file 12 to this music demodulation computer as is. It's okay.

You get the advantage of not being complicated. In particular, when a request is made from a slave station to the master station, a program is created to forcibly notify the master station of the number and number of songs played in the past, as shown in the second diagram. Since it is possible to always know the performance status of the station, it is convenient for calculating the service fee charged from the master station to the slave station.
