ABSTRACT:
An electronic musical instrument of the present invention provides a tone generator which includes an exciter generating an excitation signal and a sound producer having an input apparatus which produces a musical tone signal in response to the excitation signal. The-tone generator delays the musical tone signal and feeds the musical tone signal back to the input apparatus. Furthermore, the electronic musical instrument provides a memory which stores a plurality of sound production algorithms and an assignment designating apparatus which designates one of the plurality of sound production algorithms and assigns the designated sound production algorithm to the musical tone generator. Moreover, the tone generator further includes the operation apparatus which performs the assigned sound production algorithm on the musical tone signal. In addition, the electronic musical instrument provides the extractor which extracts the musical tone signal.
