The invention disclosed herein comprises a method for visually representing music to be played on a musical instrument by providing a tablature staff which is divided into individual measures by segmenting the tablature staff with measure lines. Each measure is then further divided into proportional time subdivisions using subdivision lines. Alphanumeric notes are then printed between these subdivision lines on the tablature staff, wherein each alphanumeric note represents a tone to be played on a musical instrument and wherein the duration of each alphanumeric note is indicated by the number of time subdivisions within a measure and its corresponding font size.

A data generation device includes: an acquisition part configured to acquire measurement data that corresponds to measurement values, obtained in chronological order, corresponding to a behavior of a key or a member coordinating with the key for each of a plurality of keys; and a data generation part configured to generate display data for displaying a screen showing the measurement values corresponding to each of the plurality of keys along a time axis based on the acquired measurement data.

An electronic musical instrument includes a performance operator and at least one processor. In accordance with pitch data associated with the performance operator operated by a user, the at least one processor digitally synthesizes and outputs inferential musical sound data including inferential performance technique of a player. The inferential performance technique of the player is based on acoustic feature data output by a trained acoustic model obtained by performing machine learning on: a training score data set including training pitch data; and a training performance data set obtained by the player playing a musical instrument and is not played in the user operation of the performance operator.

Disclosed are a harmony symbol input device and method using a dedicated chord input unit. The harmony symbol input device includes: a musical notation provider configured to visualize and provide a musical notation; a chord input unit provider configured to provide a dedicated chord input unit for inputting a harmony symbol in each harmony section of the musical notation; and a harmony symbol display part configured to repeat an operation that provides highlighting for a specific harmony section in a progression order of the musical notation and displays the harmony symbol received from the dedicated chord input unit in relation to the highlighting.

Systems and methods for mapping parts in a digital sheet music file for a harmony. The method may include receiving a selection of a music segment for part mapping, receiving a digital sheet music representation of the selected music segment, and determining a plurality of plausible part mapping for the digital sheet music representation. A part mapping identifies one or more distinct musical parts in the digital sheet music representation, each of said one or more distinct musical parts corresponding to a performer of the harmony. The method may also include analyzing one or more features of the plurality of plausible part mapping to identify a highest probability part mapping based on previously stored information, and outputting the highest probability part mapping.
