Claims
- 1. A musical tone synthesizing apparatus comprising:
- performance data generation means for generating performance data in accordance with a performance operation,
- excitation means for generating an excitation signal corresponding to said performance data, including means for generation an initial excitation signal having a pulse width which is short relative to said excitation signal, and
- wave transmission means, including at least two paths, a junction, means for delaying said excitation signal by a predetermined time, and means for extracting the excitation signal, for repeatedly circulating said excitation signal and for outputting the repeatedly circulated excitation signal,
- wherein said performance data operation means supplies a performance initiation signal to said excitation means during initial generation of said musical tone signal, and wherein said excitation means generates said initial excitation signal in response thereto so as to excite said wave transmission means.
- 2. A musical tone synthesizing apparatus in accordance with claim 1, in which said wave transmission means resonates at a predetermined resonance frequency in response to said initial excitation control signal.
- 3. A musical tone synthesizing apparatus in accordance with claim 1, in which said performance data generation means generates a tonguing signal as said performance initiation signal, and provides it to the means for generating an initial excitation control signal, said tonguing signal expressing a position of a tongue of a player with respect to a reed of a wind instrument.
- 4. A musical tone synthesizing apparatus in accordance with claim 3, in which said excitation means generates a signal indicating a beginning of tone generation based on said tonguing signal.
- 5. A musical tone synthesizing apparatus in accordance with claim 1, in which said initial excitation control signal corresponds to an initial displacement of a reed of a wind instrument at the time of musical tone generation.
