ABSTRACT:
A music apparatus is provided with a memory device that stores waveform data, and a sound device that has a plurality of tone generating channels, each of which is tuned in normal setting effective to process the waveform data retrieved from the memory device so as to generate a musical sound. An input device is placed in either of an active state for inputting external waveform data and an inactive state where the external waveform data is not inputted. A detector device is provided to produces a detection signal when the input device switches between the active state and the inactive state. A control device responds to the detection signal when the input device switches to the active state for controlling the sound device to change at least one of the tone generating channels from the normal setting to alternative setting effective to admit and process the external waveform data inputted from the input device so as to generate an additional sound so that the sound device can generate mixture of the musical sound and the additional sound. Otherwise, the control device responds to the detection signal when the input device switches to the inactive state for controlling the sound device to restore that one tone generating channel from the alternative setting to the normal setting so that the sound device generates the musical sound alone.
