Abstract
Automatic play progresses automatically with each sound generating operation based on timing data that indicates the timing for sounding a tone. In this manner, performance information for time count automatic play can be used with one-step automatic play. In addition, the information based on the tone generation operation for one-step automatic play and the information based on the sound generating operation for manual play are assigned to tone generating channels, which enables one-step automatic play and manual play to be performed together (in soli). Also, whether or not one-step automatic play is performed can be selected for each respective performance part or instrumental part.
