TONE GENERATION ASSIGNING APPARATUS AND METHOD

摘要

Tone generating instructions designating one or more tone pitches are received in response to performance operation on a keyboard, for example. A plurality of assigners are provided to assign tone colours to the one or more tone pitches designated by the received tone generating instructions. The plurality of the assigners are configured to select, for each assignor, from among the one or more tone pitches designated by the one or more tone generation instructions received by a reception section, one or more target tone pitches to which the tone color is to be assigned by the assigner, and determine, for each assignor and on the basis of a priority order set for each assigner, from among the selected one or more target tone pitches, one or more tone pitches of which tones are to be generated with the tone color assigned by the assigner.
