There is provided a music reproduction system which enables music editing
and acoustic effect application by simple operations, for realizing a
desired musical concept in an operator's mind. An operating terminal that
can be carried by an operator generates motion information in response to
motion of the operator carrying the operating terminal unit. Music data
of a piece of music to be reproduced is edited based on the generated
motion information. The motion information includes peak information
indicative of magnitude of the motion. When a peak value indicated by the
peak information exceeds predetermined first and second threshold values,
music reproduction control information is generated based on the peak
information, and when the peak value indicated by the peak information is
larger than the first threshold value and smaller than the second
threshold value, acoustic effect control information is generated based
on the peak information. The music data is edited based on the music
reproduction control information and the acoustic effect control
information.
