ABSTRACT:
An electronic musical instrument provides at least one pad to which a desirable musical tone such as a percussion instrument tone is assigned. When operating the pad, the corresponding musical tone is to be generated. Thereafter, when the pad operation is terminated, the musical tone can be simultaneously muted, decayed gradually or continuously generated for a while in accordance with the performer's control. An effected tone, i.e., a musical tone to which a musical effect is applied, can be also assigned to the pad. In this case, by operating the pad, the assigned effected tone can be generated.
