ABSTRACT:
A musical tone parameter generating method and a musical tone generating device of this invention feature that when data inputted by a player is inputted into a neural network as input pattern, the neural network infers the parameters necessary to specify a musical tone wave form to be formed. This makes it possible to get parameters other than those stored in a memory by inferring, which increases variation of the musical tone to be generated.
