ABSTRACT:
In an automatic accompanying apparatus and an automatic accompanying method, the respective part structures of a plurality of basic variation patterns used as a basic accompanying pattern of rhythm are arbitrarily set by a music player. When the music player selects one basic variation pattern from a plurality of basic variation patterns to which the part structures are set in such a manner, the part structure is automatically set in such a manner that part structures of an intro-pattern, an ending pattern, and also a fill-in pattern, which are prepared for this rhythm, are made equal to the part structure of the selected basic variation pattern. The automatic accompaniment is carried out by employing the selected basic variation pattern, and the intro-pattern, ending pattern, and fill-in pattern, which own the same part structures as that of this basic variation pattern. As a result, the automatic accompaniment can be carried out while being matched with a motif of a user through the entire music. Moreover, the parameter setting operation executed before starting the musical play can be simplified.
