Abstract

PURPOSE:To add vibrato effect electronically to announcing sound and obtain announcing sound of good quality by periodically changing the frequency signal for announcing sound fractionally. CONSTITUTION:When the time of a clock part 2 reaches the just time, unlocking 4 closes and the note data from a note ROM8 are applied to a P divider 10. The P divider 10 divides the output of an oscillator 12 down to the scale frequencies necessary for melody. On the other hand, the output of the oscillator 12 is divided at 14 to the low frequency signal for vibrato, and this causes the dividing ratio of the divider 10 to fluctuate along with its change. Because of this, the frequencies of the respective scales of the melody sounds or hour striking sounds obtained in the output of the divider 10 change periodically. The attenuation signal from an envelope generating circuit 18 and the scale frequency signal from the divider 10 are superposed by way of an analogue switch 16 and are applied to a speaker 22.
