Abstract
The ROMstores a chord scale note table composed of a plurality of scale by 12 notes starting from a chord tone in which C note is given as a root note and arranging a chord scale note as an inverted form of a chord in which the note is given as the lowest note. Where there is any change in chord at a beginning note of a phrase, or while phrase is played, notes are replaced to suppress note jump by using the chord scale note table. Where time from the previous key-on to the current key-on is in excess of a predetermined time, the note jump will not be suppressed.
