Abstract:
A signal supply device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a generator configured to generate a first sound signal and a second sound signal in accordance with an instruction signal including operation body information corresponding to an operation input to an operation body and linked member information corresponding to a movement of a linked member linked with the operation body and an adjuster configured to adjust a relationship between the first sound signal and the second sound signal on the basis of the operation body information and the linked member information.
Abstract:
A pedal unit according to an embodiment includes a first foot lever, a shaft serving as a center of rotation of the first foot lever, and a bearing paired with the shaft. The shaft or the bearing includes a first member arranged on at least a portion of surfaces in contact with each other, and a second member formed of a material different from the first member and supporting the first member from a side opposite the surfaces. The surfaces are included in an inner area of a width of the first foot lever when the first foot lever is viewed perpendicular to the shaft. The first member and the second member are fixed in a sliding direction of the shaft and the bearing.
Abstract:
A musical sound producing apparatus includes a plurality of keys; a sound production information generator configured to generate sound production information for producing a musical sound based on a first key operation on any key among the plurality of keys; a control information generator configured to generate control information for controlling, on the basis of a second key operation different from the first key operation, a mode of the musical sound produced on the basis of the first key operation; and a musical sound signal generator configured to generate a musical sound signal on the basis of the sound production information and the control information.
Abstract:
A key includes upper, front and side walls each having a flat shape, and a downwardly-opening space. The key includes a first part (e.g., the upper and front walls) normally visible from outside with the key assembled to the keyboard musical instrument; and a second part (e.g., the side walls) normally invisible from outside with the key assembled to the keyboard musical instrument. In molding, a first molding process is performed where resin is poured into a first mold to mold one of the part normally visible from outside and the part normally invisible from outside, and then a second molding process is performed where the one part molded by the first molding process is inserted into a second mold and resin is poured into the second mold so that the other of the parts is molded and thus the upper wall, front wall and side walls are insert-molded.
Abstract:
A keyboard device includes plural white and black keys 11w, 11b that rock according to a key depression/release operation. Positions of key support portions 13w, 13b supporting the plural white and black keys 11b, 11w in the longitudinal direction are set to be different from one another. The keyboard device also includes hammers 16w, 16b that rock with the rocking movement of the plural white and black keys 11w, 11b. The plural white and black keys 11w, 11b include drive units 11w1, 11b1 that drive the hammers 16w, 16b. The drive units 11w1, 11b1 and the pivot centers of the hammers are located on the same straight line extending in the lateral direction. An upper-limit stopper 21 and a lower-limit stopper 20, which restrict the rocking movement of the hammers 16w, 16b, are provided to extend in the lateral direction.
Abstract:
A pedal unit 10 in one embodiment includes a case 190, a foot lever 100, and an elastic member 155. The foot lever 100 includes a first portion 100r located inside the case 190 and a second portion 100f located outside the case 190. The foot lever 100 is rotatably arranged with respect to the case 190. A center of rotation is located between the first portion 100r and the second portion 100f. The elastic member 155 is arranged within the case 190 and provides a force against the first portion 100r.
Abstract:
A pedal device includes a case, a foot lever including a first portion located inside the case and a second portion located outside the case, the foot lever being arranged to be rotatable with respect to the case, a center of rotation of the foot lever being located between the first portion and the second portion, a first sensor detecting a position of the foot lever between a rest position and an end position, and a reaction force member contacting with the foot lever and applying a reaction force while the foot lever rotates from the rest position to the end position, the reaction force member being located corresponding to a portion opposite to the center of rotation of the first portion.
Abstract:
A sound production control apparatus has a position detector that detects, in accordance with a playing operation of a musical instrument, a position of a key displaceable within a movement range from a start position to an end position. The movement range includes a sounding range including a sounding position and a setting range that is closer to the start position than the sounding range. The apparatus causes a played sound associated with the key to be produced upon the detected position of the key reaching the sounding position, while controlling a characteristic of the played sound depending on a displacement characteristic of the key within the setting range before the key is positioned in the sounding range.
Abstract:
A signal supply device according to an aspect of the present invention includes a generator configured to generate a first sound signal and a second sound signal in accordance with an instruction signal corresponding to an operation input to an operation body and an adjuster configured to calculate an acceleration of the operation body in accordance with the instruction signal and to adjust a relationship between the first sound signal and the second sound signal on the basis of the acceleration.
Abstract:
A keyboard device includes plural white and black keys 11w,11b that rock according to a key depression/release operation. Positions of key support portions 13w,13b supporting the plural white and black keys 11w,11b in the longitudinal direction are set to be different from one another. The keyboard device also includes hammers 16w,16b that rock with the rocking movement of the plural white and black keys 11w,11b. The plural white and black keys 11w,11b include drive units 11w1, 11b1 that drive the hammers 16w, 16b respectively. The pivot center of the hammer 16b is located posterior to the pivot center of the hammer 16w. An upper-limit stopper 21 and a lower-limit stopper 20, which restrict the rocking movement of the hammers 16w,16b are provided to extend in the lateral direction.
