Sound source device for electronic musical instrument, musical sound generating method and electronic musical instrument system

A sound source device for an electronic musical instrument, comprising:

• at least one first kind of connection terminal to which a first playing operation device outputting a first playing information using a digital signal is connected and which are connected with any one of a plurality types of first playing operation devices;
• and
• a musical sound generating unit that generates a first musical sound signal on the basis of the first playing information outputted from the first playing operation device connected to the first kind of connection terminal in a case in which another first playing operation device of the same type as the type of the first playing operation device is not connected to another first kind of connection terminal, and
• does not generate the first musical sound signal based on the first playing information outputted from the first playing operation device in a case in which the another first playing operation device of the same type is connected to the another first kind of connection terminal.

A musical sound generating method, generating a musical sound in a sound source device for an electronic musical instrument, the musical sound generating method comprising:

• providing at least one first kind of connection terminal to which a first playing operation device outputting a first playing information using a digital signal is connected and which are connected with any one of a plurality types of first playing operation devices;
• providing a plurality of second kind of connection terminals to which a second playing operation device outputting a second playing information using an analog signal is connected and which are disposed for each type of a plurality types of second playing operation devices;
• and
• generating a first musical sound signal on the basis of the first playing information outputted from the first playing operation device connected to the first kind of connection terminal, and generating a second musical sound signal on the basis of the second playing information outputted from the second playing operation device connected to the second kind of connection terminals, respectively.
