An electronic performance device includes a storage mechanism 1, a detection mechanism 2 and an output mechanism 3. The storage mechanism 1 is configured to store data waveforms per level of hit strength. The detection mechanism 2 is configured to transmit a detection signal at the time of hitting. The output mechanism 3 is configured to output data waveforms corresponding to the hit strength indicated by the detection signal. The storage mechanism 1 stores basic data waveforms corresponding to each level of strength of a hit on a musical instrument. An additional element that is produced based on waveform data extracted separately from the basic waveform data and applicable to multiple levels of the hit strength. The output mechanism 3 outputs output waveform data where the additional element is applied to the basic waveform data.
