US 2019/0096377 A1 · CONVERSION-TO-NOTE APPARATUS, ELECTRONIC WIND INSTRUMENT AND CONVERSION-TO-NOTE METHOD

Abstract

A conversion-to-note apparatus includes: a key which is operated by a user; and a processor. The processor obtains, from a memory, first information and second information. The first information is information to associate a key operation on the key with an open/close state of a tone hole or virtual tone hole. The second information is information to associate the open/close state of the tone hole or virtual tone hole with a note. Further, the processor identifies, based on the first information, the open/close state of the tone hole or virtual tone hole for the key operation detected. Further, the processor determines, based on the second information, the note for the identified open/close state of the tone hole or virtual tone hole.
