| abstract |
In a network performance system involving a plurality of performance apparatuses, each performance apparatus stores phrase performance information of a plurality of performance parts, and each performance apparatus is allocated with one of the performance parts to conduct an ensemble performance composed of the plurality of the performance parts. A server apparatus is connected to each of the performance apparatuses via a network. Each of the performance apparatuses is manually operable to input operational information relating to the performance part allocated thereto, and transmits the inputted operational information to the server apparatus via the network. The server apparatus delivers the operational information transmitted by each of the performance apparatuses to other of the performance apparatuses via the network. Each of the performance apparatuses receives the operational information relating to other performance parts allocated to other of the performance apparatuses from the server apparatus via the network, and reproduces the phrase performance information of the performance part allocated thereto in response to the inputted operational information and concurrently reproduces the phrase information of other performance parts allocated to other of the performance apparatuses in response to the received operational information to thereby conduct the ensemble performance composed of the plurality of the performance parts. |
