Abstract
During percussion performance, percussion data corresponding to states of percussion sequentially detected by percussion-detection section and tone pitch data corresponding to the sequentially struck percussion members are stored. The stored percussion data and tone pitch data are sequentially read out to generate musical tones, each having a tone pitch corresponding to the tone pitch data, in accordance with the percussion data. Parameters of musical tones to be generated or being generated are controlled in accordance with instructions of a parameter indication section provided on a striking member.
