ABSTRACT:
An electronic musical instrument includes a pitch designation device for designating a pitch of a musical tone, and an operation device for setting an operation state of the electronic musical instrument and outputting operation data according to the operation state. When a pitch of a musical tone to be produced is designated, and operation data is outputted, musical tone parameters are read out from storage in accordance with the designated pitch and the operation data. The musical tone parameters include musical tone parameters directly corresponding to the designated pitch, and musical tone parameters for resonance tones. The musical tones are generated according to these readout musical tone parameters. The electronic musical instrument can obtain a resonance effect, a change in tone color, and the like, which are approximate to those of an acoustic instrument.
