　以下、本発明の実施の一形態について説明する。図１には、本発明の実施の形態に係る音響装置１が示されている。音響装置１は、音響装置本体としてのＤＪコントローラ２、コンピュータ３、およびスピーカー４を備える。ＤＪコントローラ２およびコンピュータ３は双方向通信可能なＵＳＢケーブル５により双方向通信可能に接続されている。ＤＪコントローラ２およびスピーカー４は、アナログケーブル６により接続されている。 Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 1 shows an acoustic device 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The audio device 1 includes a DJ controller 2 as a main body of the audio device, a computer 3, and a speaker 4. The DJ controller 2 and the computer 3 are connected by a USB cable 5 capable of bidirectional communication so that bidirectional communication is possible. The DJ controller 2 and the speaker 4 are connected by an analog cable 6.
　ＤＪコントローラ２は、操作者が操作をすることにより、音響制御装置としても機能し、コンピュータ３で再生中の楽曲に対して、スクラッチ、ループ再生、ＣＵＥ等の再生制御を行う。また、ＤＪコントローラ２は、再生中の楽曲データに対して、フェーズ、ノイズ等のエフェクト処理を行う。ＤＪコントローラ２は、左右に配置される２つのデッキ部２Ａと、２つのデッキ部２Ａの間に配置されるミキサー部２Ｂとを備える。 The DJ controller 2 also functions as an acoustic control device when operated by an operator, and performs playback control such as scratch, loop playback, and CUE on the music being played back by the computer 3. Further, the DJ controller 2 performs effect processing such as phase and noise on the music data being reproduced. The DJ controller 2 includes two deck units 2A arranged on the left and right and a mixer unit 2B arranged between the two deck units 2A.
　デッキ部２Ａは、操作者がＤＪコントローラ２を操作する主たる部分であり、コンピュータ３により再生中の楽曲データに対して、スクラッチ、ループ再生、キュー等の種々の特殊再生操作を行うことができる。
　デッキ部２Ａは、ジョグダイヤル２１、テンポスライダー２２、キューボタン２３、プレイ／ポーズボタン２４、およびパフォーマンスパッド２５を備え、それぞれのデッキ部２Ａには、２チャンネルの音源を接続できるようになっている。 The deck unit 2A is a main part for the operator to operate the DJ controller 2, and can perform various special reproduction operations such as scratch, loop reproduction, and cue on the music data being reproduced by the computer 3.
The deck unit 2A includes a jog dial 21, a tempo slider 22, a cue button 23, a play / pause button 24, and a performance pad 25, and a 2-channel sound source can be connected to each deck unit 2A.
　ジョグダイヤル２１は、回転操作子として機能し、操作者がジョグダイヤル２１を回転させることにより、再生中の楽曲データの速度を順方向に速めたり、逆転方向に回転させて逆転再生させたりすることができる。また、ジョグダイヤル２１は、順方向、逆方向の回転を繰り返すことにより、ＤＪパフォーマンス特有のスクラッチ再生を行うことができる。
　テンポスライダー２２は、再生中の楽曲データの再生速度を調整するレバーであり、中央から上部にスライドさせると、再生速度が上昇し、下部にスライドさせると再生速度が低下する。 The jog dial 21 functions as a rotary operator, and when the operator rotates the jog dial 21, the speed of the music data being played can be increased in the forward direction or can be rotated in the reverse direction to be reproduced in reverse. . Further, the jog dial 21 can perform scratch reproduction specific to DJ performance by repeating forward and reverse rotations.
The tempo slider 22 is a lever that adjusts the playback speed of the music data being played back. When the slider is slid upward from the center, the playback speed increases, and when it is slid downward, the playback speed decreases.
　キューボタン２３は、操作者が操作することにより、楽曲データの再生開始位置をキューポイントとして設定することができる。具体的にはキューボタン２３が操作されると、楽曲データ中の所定の位置がキューポイントとして設定され、次回再生開始時には、設定されたキューポイントから再生が開始される。
　プレイ／ポーズボタン２４は、操作者が操作することにより、再生中の楽曲データの再生の開始、停止を行うことができる。
　パフォーマンスパッド２５は、操作者が操作することにより、再生中の楽曲データへの効果を切り替えることができる。たとえば、操作者がパフォーマンスパッド２５を操作することにより、再生中の楽曲データに対して、瞬間的にループ、キュー、キーシフト等の効果を付与することができる。 When the operator operates the cue button 23, the music data reproduction start position can be set as a cue point. Specifically, when the cue button 23 is operated, a predetermined position in the music data is set as a cue point, and at the next reproduction start, reproduction is started from the set cue point.

　ただし、前述した効果量調整つまみ２７の場合、無段階で回転調整可能となっているため、正確に操作手順に一致させることは困難である。そこで、本実施の形態では、操作手順で示された回転調整量に対して、たとえば、前後１０％以内の調整量であれば、操作者の操作結果が正しいと判定する。具体的には、効果量調整つまみ２７を５０の調整量に、４小節をかけて調整するという操作手順に対して、操作者が、効果量調整つまみ２７を４９の調整量に、３．９小節かけて調整した場合、操作結果を正しいと判定する。 The operation collating unit 346 collates the operation procedure displayed on the display 31 by the operation procedure notifying unit 344 with the result of the operator operating the DJ controller 2 detected by the operation result detecting unit 345.
The operation collation unit 346 determines that the operation result of the operator is correct when the operation procedure displayed by the operation procedure notification unit 344 and the operation result detected by the operation result detection unit 345 are the same.
However, in the case of the effect amount adjusting knob 27 described above, it is possible to adjust the rotation steplessly, so it is difficult to accurately match the operation procedure. Therefore, in the present embodiment, for example, if the adjustment amount is within 10% before and after the rotation adjustment amount indicated in the operation procedure, it is determined that the operation result of the operator is correct. Specifically, for an operation procedure in which the effect amount adjustment knob 27 is adjusted by adjusting the effect amount adjustment knob 27 to 50 adjustment amounts by 4 bars, the operator sets the effect amount adjustment knob 27 to 49 adjustment amounts. If the adjustment is made in bars, the operation result is determined to be correct.

The collation result notifying unit 347 displays the collation result on the display 31 under the icon of each procedure that constitutes the operation procedure, so that the operator can visually recognize the correct and incorrect characters. Further, the verification result notification unit 347 outputs the verification result to the DJ controller 2. The LED light emitting unit 278 shown in FIG. 2B emits light with a light emission color corresponding to the collation result. For example, when the collation results match, the LED light emission unit 278 emits green light. To do.
　操作子認識部３４８は、操作手順通知部３４４によりディスプレイ３１上に表示された操作手順に応じて、ＤＪコントローラ２の次に操作すべき操作子を操作者に認識させる。
　具体的には、操作子認識部３４８は、次に操作すべき操作子が効果量調整つまみ２７であった場合、ＬＥＤ発光部２７８を青色発光させる制御指令を出力し、操作者に効果量調整つまみ２７の操作を促す。 The operator recognizing unit 348 causes the operator to recognize the operator to be operated next to the DJ controller 2 in accordance with the operation procedure displayed on the display 31 by the operation procedure notifying unit 344.
Specifically, when the operator to be operated next is the effect amount adjustment knob 27, the operator recognition unit 348 outputs a control command for causing the LED light emitting unit 278 to emit blue light, and adjusts the effect amount to the operator. The operation of the knob 27 is prompted.

The operation procedure notification unit 344 displays the connection location between the DJ controller 2 and the computer 3 and the connection location of the microphone and the headphones on the display 31 and displays these connection procedures to the operator (procedure S2).
　操作手順通知部３４４は、すべての接続箇所が接続されるまで、接続手順の表示を継続し（手順Ｓ３）、すべての接続箇所が接続されたら、操作手順をディスプレイ３１上に表示する（手順Ｓ４）。合わせて操作子認識部３４８は、たとえば、ＤＪコントローラ２に操作すべき操作子のＬＥＤ発光部２７８に制御指令を出力し、次に操作すべき効果量調整つまみ２７を青色に発光させる（手順Ｓ５）。
　操作結果検出部３４５は、操作者がＤＪコントローラ２を操作した結果を検出する（手順Ｓ６）。 The operation procedure notification unit 344 continues to display the connection procedure until all the connection locations are connected (procedure S3), and when all the connection locations are connected, displays the operation procedure on the display 31 (procedure S4). ). In addition, for example, the operator recognition unit 348 outputs a control command to the LED light emitting unit 278 of the operator to be operated to the DJ controller 2, and causes the effect amount adjustment knob 27 to be operated next to emit blue light (step S5). ).
The operation result detection unit 345 detects the result of the operator operating the DJ controller 2 (step S6).
　操作照合部３４６は、ディスプレイ３１上に表示された操作手順と、操作結果検出部３４５により検出された操作者の操作結果の照合を行う（手順Ｓ７）。
　操作照合部３４６は、すべての操作手順と操作結果の照合が終了したか否かを判定し（手順Ｓ８）、終了していない場合には、次の操作手順を手順Ｓ４によりディスプレイ３１上に表示する。 The operation collation unit 346 collates the operation procedure displayed on the display 31 and the operation result of the operator detected by the operation result detection unit 345 (procedure S7).
The operation collation unit 346 determines whether or not collation of all operation procedures and operation results has been completed (procedure S8). If not completed, the next operation procedure is displayed on the display 31 in step S4. To do.
　すべての操作手順と操作結果の照合が終了したら、照合結果通知部３４７は、ディスプレイ３１上に照合結果を表示する（手順Ｓ９）。
