First, the musical score data storage device 32 stores horizontal position coordinates and vertical position coordinates of each staff, and row configuration information relating to the row setting contents of a plurality of staffs set in one row. Is to remember. The horizontal position coordinate and the vertical position coordinate of the staff are, for example, an X coordinate value (for example, unit mm) and a Y coordinate value (for example, unit mm) of each staff on the score. Further, the stage configuration information is information for identifying which staff is the plurality of staffs set in one stage. The step configuration information is stored, for example, independently of the horizontal position coordinates and the vertical position coordinates of the staff.
Identification code peculiar to each stage, for example, for each stage serial number of each stage, storing a code peculiar to each staff of the staff included in that stage, for example, staff serial number May be Alternatively, as the data of each staff, the row serial number of the row including the staff may be stored together with the horizontal position coordinates and the vertical position coordinates.

The in-stage staff position correcting section 30 selects the staff for position correction inputted by the graphic display device and the coordinate input device and specifies the position of the position correction destination. According to the coordinate values used, the vertical relative position of the position correction target staff in the plurality of staffs set in one stage is corrected. This correction of the in-stage staff position correction unit 30 is performed by the musical score data storage device 3
2 by updating the data stored therein.

The updating of the data in the musical score data storage device 32 is performed by setting the vertical position coordinates of the position correction target staff stored in the musical score data storage device 32 to the correction destination position coordinate values. It is based on the update. The correction position coordinate value may be, for example, data indicating the absolute coordinates on the score of the correction target staff. Alternatively, the correction position coordinate value may be a relative movement amount based on the current position (coordinate value) of the position correction target staff and that moves with the position correction.

According to the second aspect of the invention as described above, it is possible to easily correct the vertical position of the staff which has already been set in one step. For example, it is possible to easily widen or narrow the interval between the staffs having a plurality of staffs already set in one stage. Therefore, according to the second aspect of the present invention, it is possible to improve the operability and the score editing work efficiency.

When the staff and the fifth staff are moved together, the CRT64
While looking at the display of b, with the mouse, select and input the uppermost staff from the plurality of staff arranged in the vertical direction to be collectively moved. The uppermost staff data for selecting and inputting the uppermost staff is stored in the uppermost staff memory 40 of FIG. Further, while looking at the display of the CRT 64b, the mouse is used to selectively input the lowermost staff among the plurality of staffs arranged in the vertical direction to be collectively moved. The lowermost staff data for specifying the lowermost staff is stored in the lowermost staff memory 41 of FIG.

Furthermore, the CRT 64b and the mouse are used to input the coordinate values of the movement destinations of the plurality of staffs to be moved collectively. In this embodiment, the destination coordinate value is
It is the absolute coordinates on the score of the destination.

In this way, when the uppermost staff is selected and input and the lowermost staff is selectively input, from the uppermost staff data and the lowermost staff data based on these inputs, The batch transfer target determination unit 43 determines a batch transfer target staff. This is to determine a plurality of staffs including the uppermost staff and the lowermost staff, which are vertically arranged between the uppermost staff and the lowermost staff. As described above, whether or not each staff is arranged in the vertical direction in the case of the setting of a plurality of staffs according to the first invention described with reference to FIGS. 5 to 12,
This is similar to the determination as to whether or not they are arranged in the vertical direction.

In this way, when the staff to be batch-moved is determined by the batch-movement target determining unit 43, the staff to be collectively moved is batch-moved in accordance with the coordinate values of the destination. 4 updates the data stored in the musical score data storage device 47 shown in FIG. FIG. 17
The musical score S17 of the above is the musical score S16 after the data is updated by the collective moving unit 45 and collectively moved.

On the other hand, in the score S16 of FIG. 16, it is tried to move the third staff to the fifth staff all together, and the third staff
When a staff is selectively input as the uppermost staff and the fifth staff is selectively input as the lowermost staff, the collective movement target determination unit 43 of FIG. The 3rd staff to the 5th staff including the 1st staff and the 2nd staff that are in stages are determined as the staffs to be collectively moved. That is, in the case of such a selection input for the score S16, the collective movement target determining unit 43 selects five staffs of the first staff to the fifth staff as the collective movement target staffs. Therefore, if a predetermined movement destination coordinate value is input and the collective movement unit 45 collectively moves after such selection input,
For example, it becomes as shown in the score S18 of FIG.

In the collective movement object determination unit 43 of FIG. 3 of the present embodiment, between the uppermost staff and the lowermost staff entered using the CRT 64b and the mouse, Whether or not to consider a step, such as determining whether or not there is one set as a step, can be specified by parameter setting at the time of operation.

In the present embodiment, if there is one set in the stage or if it is not taken into consideration, the one set in the stage between the uppermost staff and the lowermost staff. If so, it is moved up and down only as an individual staff. Therefore, if you do not consider what is set in the stage, of the multiple staffs set in the stage,
When only some of the staffs are selected and input as the staffs that collectively move between the uppermost staff and the lowermost staff, among the plurality of staffs in the staff, these staffs Only the staff included between the lowermost staffs is moved in the vertical direction. Therefore, with respect to this step, it is as if the in-step position correction as described above was performed, and the interval between some staffs is changed.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the batch movement editing unit can collectively move the plurality of staffs while keeping the relative positional relationship among the plurality of staffs constant. Can be improved.
