ABSTRACT:
In an electronic musical instrument which produces a musical sound through calculating means of a discrete Fourier algorithm by controlling harmonic coefficients, the value of a harmonic number, more than one temporally changing effect function values and a constant value are added together in a predetermined ratio; the added value is divided into a plurality of blocks; the blocks are subjected to data conversion using plural kinds of functions arbitrarily designated corresponding to the respective blocks and outputted in combination; and the outputs are each multiplied by each harmonic coefficient, thereby controlling the harmonic coefficients with time.
