A keyboard device and a musical sound emission method are provided. A top lid is formed into a hollow structure including a lower plate and an upper plate facing the lower plate. Since vibrating bodies are fixed to an inner surface of the lower plate, the vibrating bodies can cause the lower plate to vibrate and thereby emit musical sound generated through the vibration from an outer surface side of the lower plate to the outside. On the other hand, the musical sound emitted from an inner surface side of the lower plate is blocked by the upper plate, and it is thus possible to curb mutual cancelation of musical sound in opposite phases emitted from each of the inner surface and the outer surface of the lower plate. Therefore, it is possible to efficiently emit musical sound to the surroundings of the top lid.

A diffuser which forms a first acoustic passage that sound waves propagate and which radiates the sound waves to an outer diameter direction between a diaphragm and an annular conical surface of a first reflection member, and forms a second acoustic passage the sound waves which pass the opening of the first reflection member propagate and which radiates the sound waves to an outer diameter direction between the annular concave surface of the first reflection member and a conical surface of a second reflection member.

Provided is a device 1 including: a signal processing unit 40 that applies a rotary speaker effect corresponding to a rotation speed value to a sound signal and control a tone color of the sound signal; and a control unit 10 that gradually changes, in response to a change command of the rotation speed value, the rotation speed value from a first speed to a second speed higher than the first speed with a first change curve having a first delay, and gradually changes control of the tone color from a first characteristic to a second characteristic that is stronger in the high frequency range than the first characteristic with a second change curve having a second delay shorter than the first delay.

The present disclosure is hands-free sound modulation apparatus. The hands-free sound modulation apparatus includes one more monophonic and polyphonic sound modulation assemblies for music creation, gaming, medical rehabilitation, language training, and speech enhancement. The hands-free sound modulation apparatus can be paired with a smartphone device, musical instrument, and a network of hands-free sound modulation apparatuses.

An electronic wind instrument includes a breath sensor, an operating element, a speaker, and an acoustic tube. The operating element receives an instruction related to a pitch. The speaker outputs a sound based on musical performance information obtained from at least one of the breath sensor and the operating element. The speaker has an inner space therein. The acoustic tube that has an inner space therein. The inner space of the acoustic tube is continuous with the inner space of the speaker. The acoustic tube extends in a direction away from the speaker.

A sound signal conversion device includes a supplier. The supplier supplies a periodic change to an input sound signal and outputs the sound signal to which the periodic change is supplied. The supplier includes a phase determiner that determines a phase at which the periodic change supplied to the sound signal starts based on initial phase information when receiving a start instruction for starting supply of the periodic change to the sound signal.
