ABSTRACT:
In order to use a plenty of waveform data, representing sampling waveforms of sounds produced from musical instruments, an electronic musical instrument provides a hard disk unit. Herein, musical tone information containing the waveform data is registered into the hard disk unit in the form of a file using a specific file name. When registering the file into the hard disk unit, a string of characters representing a musical property of the musical tone information are automatically created and are used as a part of the file name. Each file name incorporates an identifier made of one or more characters. When a new file name, which is automatically created and is assigned to a new file to be newly registered into the hard disk unit, coincides with the existing file name of the file which has been already registered in the hard disk unit, a new identifier is automatically created and is incorporated into the new file name. Thus, the file representing the musical tone information can be smoothly registered in the hard disk unit with the file name automatically created.
