Abstract
An electronic musical instrument is of a type wherein a key depression brings forth the generation of a key code identifying the depressed key in a digital representation, and the key code designates the tone to be produced. Based on the single key code of the depressed key, there are produced plural key codes indicating plural tones which are in predetermined musical interval relation with the depressed key to constitude a chord. The original key code and the produced key codes are utilized one after another successively to perform an automatic arpeggio.
