20100236384 | TONE GENERATION APPARATUS - With no interrupt to a CPU, waveform data stored in a NAND-type flash memory are read out on a page-by-page basis to supply a buffer of a waveform memory with waveform sample data. A series of waveform data are prestored in successive pages of the intermediate buffer capable of high-speed page access thereto. Page number of a page to be read out first is set, and that page is read into a buffer in advance. Before completion of readout of the first page, another page to be read out next is loaded into the buffer. After that, the page number is incremented by one each time readout of one page is completed, and the waveform sample data of the page number continue to be reproduced while being read into the buffer. | 09-23-2010 |
20110232460 | TONE GENERATION APPARATUS - Waveform data stored in an external memory are transferred from the external memory to an internal waveform memory and read out from the waveform memory to reproduce a tone.

Thus, in response to the transfer instruction from the queue, the waveform data are read out on page by page from the external memory and stored into the waveform memory. The external memory also stores therein error correction code attached per page. As the waveform data are transferred from the external memory to the waveform memory, an error is detected using the error correction code, and if the error is correctable, the error is corrected. If the error is uncorrectable, volume of a tone being generated is rapidly attenuated, or a warning is issued. | 09-29-2011 |
