ABSTRACT:
A musical tone generating apparatus has a processing device that produces either musical tone synthesis parameters or musical tone waveform data corresponding to input performance data, depending upon a type of the input performance data. An encoder/decoder circuit includes a tone generator circuit that generates musical tone waveform data in accordance with the musical tone synthesis parameters produced by the processing device, a buffer circuit storing the musical tone waveform data produced by the processing device, a mixing circuit that mixes the musical tone waveform data produced by the tone generator circuit and the musical tone waveform data stored in the buffer circuit, and a conversion circuit that converts mixed musical tone waveform data generated from the mixing circuit into a musical tone signal.
