Similarly, a user can listen to a rhythm through his terminal and configure it as a rhythm set. The rhythm storage unit 629 stores each rhythm for each introduction rhythm, main rhythm, fill-in rhythm, and ending rhythm so as to output data in the screen state. The pre-stored rhythm is likewise a rhythm uploaded through the rhythm upload unit 628. The rhythm upload unit 628 allows general users to store their own rhythm by introduction rhythm, main rhythm, fill-in rhythm, and ending rhythm.

When a rhythm or a rhythm set is selected by a user, the controller 622 reads a desired sound source from the rhythm storage unit 629 or the rhythm set storage unit 631. The control unit 622 transmits the read sound source to the encryption unit 627, and the encryption unit 627 generates a streaming file by tagging the sound source data to correspond one-to-one to the numeric keys on the terminal. When the encryption is completed in this way, the encrypted data is transmitted to the terminal. Then, the screen of the terminal outputs the name of the rhythm set and the corresponding rhythms corresponding to one-to-one to the numeric keys on the screen. The user of the terminal produces rhythm-based accompaniment music using the numeric keys on his terminal and uses the jog disk key for another sound source (MP3 file or downloaded sound source) to enhance the completion of the rhythm-based accompaniment music. Mix The rhythm-centric music is completed by mixing the rap again through the microphone mounted on the user terminal. For the production of rhythm-based accompaniment music, the user uses the numeric keys. Rhythms assigned to each numeric key, that is, introduction rhythm, main rhythm, fill-in rhythm, and ending rhythm, are played when the numeric key is pressed. To ensure that each rhythm is played continuously, instead of playing the rhythm the moment you press the numeric key, it is connected to the end of the currently playing rhythm. In addition, the main rhythm is set to be repeatedly played even if the numeric key is pressed once, and if the fill-in rhythm is pressed, the main rhythm is repeated after the fill-in rhythm playback. If the ending rhythm is selected, the ending rhythm is automatically terminated after playing. The rhythm center music produced in this way is transmitted to the sound management server 62. In addition, the members are connected to the community server 64 to perform the evaluation of the rhythm-centered music produced by the sound source management server 62, the community server 64 the results of the compensation unit of the sound source management server 62 ( 624). Compensation unit 624 receives the evaluation results for each rhythm-centered music from the community server 64, give a rating, and rewards by applying free download coupons or points to the corresponding members according to the rating.

The community server 64 forms a community of members by sharing various rhythm-centered music in association with the sound source management server 62.
