PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electric musical instrument which allows simplification of a structure and is easily played in the same manner as percussion instruments.
SOLUTION: The electric musical instrument comprises a main body part 11 to be held by a player, a detection means 12 provided in the main body part 11, and a sound producer 13 for reproducing prescribed electronic sounds in accordance with an output signal of the detection means 12. The main body part 11 extends along a linear direction and has one end side made into a grip part 15 to be gripped by the player. The detection means 12 includes a first sensor 12A capable of detecting a direction of the main body part 11 to the player and a second sensor 12B capable of detecting an operation of the main body part 11. When the player performs an operation as if he beat a percussion instrument, the operation is detected by the detection means 12 to play the instrument.JP2006234979

The size of the key switch apparatus, particularly its height, is reduced to allow its use even in keyboard-type electronic musical instruments. By virtue of a key-driven actuator, multiple terminal strips are allowed to contact bus bars 20a-21e installed in more than one stage so as to produce multiple tones simultaneously. In this key switch apparatus, the multiple bus bars 20a-21e are installed, being shifted in location in their respective stages, and multiple terminal strips 24a-25e are also installed in each stage so that they may contact the individual bus bars individually. In addition, the actuator has a terminal-strip engaging means for controlling the movements of the multiple terminal strips 24a-25e.

The system comprises: an air-fed organ case (4) and comprising orifices (5) which communicate with a chamber underlying the musical pipes (3), whose foot is engaged in a hole provided in said chamber, sliders (6) that control the flow of air through each orifice (5), while at least one slider (6) is actuated with the aid of a respective key (7), first position sensor means (14), arranged to sense the travel of each key (7), second position sensor means (12), arranged to sense the travel of each slider (6), and electrical / electronic circuit means (25, 26, 27, 49), which establish a correspondence between the displacements of the first position sensor means (14) and those of the second position sensor means (12) and, with the intermediary operation of respective actuator means (11) move at least a corresponding slider (6). According to the invention, said actuator means (11; 68) comprise a movable member (21, 23) which is driven to perform reciprocating movements proportionately to the movements of the respective key (7) and controls, directly and in correspondingly proportional fashion, the movement of at least a respective slider (6) both in its opening travel and in the closing travel with respect to the corresponding orifice (5).
