Electronic musical instrument having artificial string sound source with bowing effect

An electronic musical instrument comprising:

• tone characterization data generating means for generating tone characterization data characterizing a musical tone to be produced, said tone characterizing data being a composite of first data and second data which comprises two-dimensional first data and two-dimensional second data respectively, said two-dimensional first data being a pair of first(1)-dimension data and second(1)-dimension data and said two-dimensional second data being a pair of first(2)-dimension data and second(2)-dimension data, and data number of said two-dimensional first data being different from that of said two-dimensional second data;
• and
• tone generating means including a loop circuit for generating a wave signal corresponding to said musical tone in accordance with said tone characterizing data, wherein said tone characterizing data generating means includes interpolating means for interpolating said two-dimensional first data and said two-dimensional second data with each other and outputting the interpolated data to form tone characterizing data, and said loop circuit includes modifying means for modifying said wave signal transmitting through said loop circuit according to said tone characterizing data.

An electronic musical instrument comprising:

• tone characterization data generating means for generating tone characterization data characterizing a musical tone to be produced, said tone characterizing data being a composite of first data of two-or-more-dimensions and second data of two-or-more-dimensions different from said first data at least in data number;
• and
• tone generating means including a loop circuit for generating a wave signal corresponding to said musical tone in accordance with said tone characterizing data, wherein said tone characterizing data generating means includes interpolating means for interpolating said first data and said second data with each other and outputting the interpolated data to form tone characterizing data, and said loop circuit includes modifying means for modifying said wave signal transmitting through said loop circuit according to said tone characterizing data.
