ABSTRACT:
A reverberation effect adding device comprising a first convolution circuit which in turn comprises FIR filters (80-1to80-4) and an adder (accumulator) (81) which adds outputs from the FIR filters, a moving average circuit (82) which receives musical sound waveform data delayed by a predetermined number of stages in the first convolution circuit and which outputs averaged second musical sound waveform data obtained by sampling at a second sampling frequency lower than the first sampling frequency, a second convolution circuit which in turn comprises FIR filters (80-5to80-28) which sequentially receive the second musical sound waveform data obtained by sampling at the second sampling frequency and an adder (accumulator) (83), an interpolator (84) which receives an output from the adder (83) of the second convolution circuit, calculates an interpolated value of the output value from the adder (83), and provides the output from the adder (83) and the interpolated value from the interpolator (84) sequentially at the first sampling frequency, and an adder (85) which adds the outputs from the adder (81) and the interpolator (84) and outputs a result of the addition as reverberation data.
