A sound processing device that is capable of setting a plurality of processes to be performed on a sound signal on a time axis. The sound processing device includes a display control part that controls display of a screen on which two or more blocks each indicating input and output of the sound signal and process details for the input sound signal can be disposed, and a signal processing part that performs a process corresponding to each block on the sound signal in a block order defined on the basis of a positional relationship between a block disposed on the screen and a new block disposed on the screen.

A a control system for dials and switches allows one or more dials and/or switches to be controlled remotely via a wired or a wireless communication. Preferably, the control system is utilized by a user with one or more expression pedals and/or a footswitches to control audio equipment, such as, for example, an amplifier or other audio processor apparatus. Methods of using the same are further provided.

One or more embodiments of a device for securing guitar modulators is shown. The device includes a face, a bracket, and a base. The face defines a hole that extends completely through the face with a first length in a first direction and a first width in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the first length is greater than the first width. The bracket connects under the face and extends in the first direction parallel to the hole and is configured to allow a grommet to slide along the bracket in the first direction. The base is configured to support the face.

Methods, Apparatus, and a System (collectively a “platform”) for facilitating, enabling, or enhancing creation, control, and playback of digital audio loops or parts are disclosed herein. The platform may include playing back midi song segments. The midi song segments may comprise a midi sequence that is looped a predetermined number of times. The platform may include transitioning to another midi song segment automatically after predetermined number of loops or transitioning in response to a command. The platform may include changing the number of loops during playback of a song segment in response to a command. The platform may relate to enabling automatic generation of song segments during a performance. The platform may include automatically selecting midi sequences to enhance playback. The platform may include other features pertaining to enhancing or enabling digital music creation or composition.

An effector mounting plate is provided, which can protect wiring when carried while enabling work on the wiring. A back surface side of a plate is covered by a back case, and wiring (not shown) can be stored in a space formed between the plate and the back case. Therefore, when the plate and the back case are used as an effect pedal or carried, an external force can be prevented from acting on the wiring. Therefore, the wiring (jack) can be prevented from falling off an effector or from being forcibly bent and broken. By removing fastening screws, the back case can be removed from the plate to open the back surface side of the plate. Therefore, work on the wiring such as work of connecting/disconnecting the wiring to/from the effector and work of checking the wiring before performance can be easily performed.

An electronic keyboard musical instrument with a plurality of keys is provided. The electronic keyboard musical instrument comprises a detection sensor configured to detect a gentle key press to an adjacent position that is shallower than and adjacent to a resonant performance position; a computer configured to, when the detection sensor detects a gentle key press to the adjacent position of at least one first key, execute a resonance permission process to give a permission to output a resonant tone of the at least one first key; and a tone emission device configured to, when at least one second key different from the at least one first key and having a resonant relationship with the at least one first key is regularly pressed, emit a regular tone of the at least one second key and the resonant tone of the at least one first key.

A modular approach to large string array electronic musical instruments such as specialized harps, zithers, sympathetic string arrays, the Harry Partch Kithara, the Harry Partch Harmonic Cannon, and other large string array electronic musical instruments is presented. A mounting frame is used to interchangeably secure a plurality of a plurality of musical instrument modules, each comprising a plurality of strings configured to vibrate and create electronic signals. An electronic interface is configured to transmit electrical signals from the plurality of musical instrument modules to an external system. The electronic interface can be configured to provide a multichannel output. The arrangement can further comprise either or both of at least one audio mixer and at least one signal processor.

A foot pedal actuator is secured to legs of a portable musical instrument using a first elongate member having an aperture for a leg to pass through on one end, and an aperture for securing to a foot pedal actuator fastener aperture on the opposite end. A second elongate member has an aperture which is secured to the foot pedal actuator aperture on one end, and a rotatable attachment to the first elongate member along the span of the first elongate member. A third member similar to the first member and fourth member similar to the second member secure the four corners of the foot pedal actuator to two feet of the portable musical instrument, which pass through the leg apertures of the elongate members.

An instrument interconnect system that interfaces an instrument, such as a guitar or a bass, to an audio-receiving device, such as an amplifier, effect box, or a mixer. The instrument interconnect system provides enhanced clarity and sonic detail. The instrument interconnect system may allow a musician to select a voltage-buffered output signal, an unbuffered output signal, or may allow a musician to mix a voltage-buffered output signal and an unbuffered output signal. The instrument interconnect system may further allow the musician to selectively activate or deactivate gain-adjustment circuits and equalization circuits.

An adjustable guitar effects pedalboard for anchoring guitar effects pedals. More specifically, a pedalboard having at least two telescoping sections, wherein the pedalboard is configured to allow users to adjust the width of the pedalboard to fit their needs. The pedalboard can have an upper level and a lower, telescoping level, and the upper level and the lower, telescoping level may be curved and further contain a plurality of holes on which users can use cable ties to anchor their guitar effects pedals. The plurality of holes in each of the at least two telescoping sections may align with each other in various positions of expansion and contraction.
