Abstract

An electronic wind instrument includes a tonguing sensor which detects tonguing, a breath sensor which detects a breath value, a loudspeaker which outputs a musical sound and a processor which controls the musical sound, in which the processor acquires a tonguing value which depends on a tonguing time which is the time which has elapsed after start of the tonguing which is detected by the tongue sensor, decides a silencing effect value which indicates a degree of volume reduction depending on the tonguing value, acquires the breath value which depends on a magnitude of a breath sensor signal which indicates a result of detection by the breath sensor and makes the loudspeaker emit the musical sound whose volume which depends on the breath value is reduced depending on the silencing effect value.
