ABSTRACT:
A positional effect sound generation apparatus for an electronic musical instrument includes a function selector for selecting a function according to a user's selection, a note sensing circuit for sensing a note corresponding to a key on a keyboard pushed by a performer, a storage unit for storing a plurality of control signals, a CPU for selecting ones of the control signals in the storage unit corresponding to the selected function and the sensed note, a ROM for storing a plurality of sound data, a sound generator for selecting a desired one of the sound data in the ROM in response to the control signal from the CPU and generating a sound signal according to the selected sound data, a sound processing circuit for processing the sound signal from the sound generator and generating an analog echo effect sound signal, a mixer for mixing the processed sound signal with the analog echo effect sound signal, a display controller for controlling a display unit in response to the control signal from the CPU to display a position of a listener on a screen, a positional effect sound generator for applying various positional effects to an output signal from the mixer in response to the control signal from the CPU to generate a positional effect sound, and an amplifier for amplifying the positional effect sound by a predetermined level.
