Abstract
Automatic performance data of plural channels are read from a memory, these data are interpolated by interpolation data and an automatic performance tone is generated on the basis of the interpolated automatic performance data. The interpolation data can be variably set in accordance with an operation by a player whereby the player's feeling can be reflected freely on the automatic performance in real time performance. Change data for changing the automatic performance data may be stored in a memory and this change data may be selected freely by a selective operation by the player. The selected change data may be variably controlled by an operation by the player. Plural types of change data patterns corresponding to one phrase may be stored and a sequence combination of these change data patterns may be freely set and changed. By these arrangements, an automatic performance which is rich in expression of feeling as in a live performance can be realized.
