Sound Generation Device Segregating Rhythm Melody and Effects Operators
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing sound generation devices complicate intuitive operation due to shared functions among operation buttons, making it difficult to perform sound generation tasks effectively.
Innovation Solution
A generation device with distinct regions for operators dedicated to generating rhythm sound, melody sound, and applying sound effects, allowing users to focus on specific functions without function switching, enhancing intuitive operation through separate and color-coded regions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If the same operation button is shared by a plurality of different functions, then the device complexity is reduced and the number of operators is minimized, but the ease of operation deteriorates because it is not easy to intuitively perform an operation for generating a sound
Solution Approach 1:
The operation buttons are segmented into three distinct regions: a first region for rhythm sound generation, a second region for melody sound generation, and a third region for sound effect application. Each region contains operators dedicated to specific functions, eliminating the need for function switching and enabling intuitive operation while maintaining a manageable number of operators overall.
2Adaptability or versatility
If functions are switched among operation buttons, then the adaptability of the device is improved, but the ease of operation deteriorates due to function switching complexity
Solution Approach 1:
Different regions of the device are assigned different functional qualities: the first region is dedicated to rhythm sound generation, the second region to melody sound generation, and the third region to sound effect application. This local specialization allows each region to be optimized for its specific function while maintaining overall device versatility, and users can intuitively operate each region without needing to understand or switch between multiple functions.

AI summary
The present disclosure provides a generation device having a plurality of operators that receive a user operation that causes generation of a sound. The generation device includes: at least one first operator arranged in a first region and configured to receive a first user operation that causes generation of a rhythm sound signal; at least one second operator arranged in a second region and configured to receive a second user operation that causes generation of a melody sound signal; and at least one third operator arranged in a third region and configured to receive a third user operation that causes a sound effect to be applied to a synthesized sound signal of the generated rhythm sound signal and the generated melody sound signal. The first region, the second region, and the third region are different regions of the generation device from each other.
