An electronic musical instrument has a waveform memory, a CPU, a tone generator and a keyboard. The waveform memory stores a plurality of waveforms corresponding to musical parameters such as tone colors. The CPU controls the tone generator to generate musical tone signals in response to key-on and key-off events detected from the keyboard. The CPU detects legato performance when a plurality of keys of the keyboard are consecutively depressed and a key-on event is detected prior to a key-off event of the other key which has been previously depressed. When the legato performance is detected, under the control of the CPU, the waveform data except for the attack portion of the waveform are read out from the waveform memory in response to the key-on events which follow the first key-on event, and the musical tone signals are generated by the tone generator based on the read out waveform data. |
