This electronic musical instrument main body device comprises an information acquisition unit and a port assignment unit. The information acquisition unit acquires, from a playing operation device connected to one connection terminal, information related to the playing operation device. The port assignment unit assigns, to the playing operation device, a virtual input port of a type corresponding to the information related to the playing operation device and acquired by the information acquisition unit.

Methods, systems, and computer program products for network-based processing and distribution of multimedia content of a live performance are disclosed. In some implementations, recording devices can be configured to record a multimedia event (e.g., a musical performance). The recording devices can provide the recordings to a server while the event is ongoing. The server automatically synchronizes, mixes and masters the recordings. The server performs the automatic mixing and mastering using reference audio data previously captured during a rehearsal. The server streams the mastered recording to multiple end users through the Internet or other public or private network. The streaming can be live streaming.

The present disclosure provides a generation device having a plurality of operators that receive a user operation that causes generation of a sound. The generation device includes: at least one first operator arranged in a first region and configured to receive a first user operation that causes generation of a rhythm sound signal; at least one second operator arranged in a second region and configured to receive a second user operation that causes generation of a melody sound signal; and at least one third operator arranged in a third region and configured to receive a third user operation that causes a sound effect to be applied to a synthesized sound signal of the generated rhythm sound signal and the generated melody sound signal. The first region, the second region, and the third region are different regions of the generation device from each other.

A device is provided for capturing vibrations produced by an object such as a musical instrument such as a cymbal of a drum kit. The device comprises a detectable element, such as a ferromagnetic element, such as a metal shim and a sensor spaced apart from and located relative to the musical instrument. The detectable element is located between the sensor and the musical instrument. When the musical instrument vibrates, the sensor remains stationary and the detectable element is vibrated relative to the sensor by the musical instrument.
