`
`<Product Overview>
`
`Since last year, and continues to grow in both the telephone company melody ringtone to inform in the melody ring tone of an
`incoming call, such as a mobile phone or PHS has attracted wide popularity, to provide service, support model. I show other data or
`delivery service of melody ringtone by e-mail fi.mction, a book fur you to enter a melody to the phone on your own is hit, CD with
`bundled a guide for input as well as on the market, a variety of spread have.
`
`To begin sampling recently 1YMU75T 1 is a general-purpose sound source LSI of mobile phone · PHS for the higher sound quality
`greatly, to multiple fi.mctions such melody ringtone. Melody ringtone of current, to 1re playing the melody is based on a monotonous
`electronic sound, the 1YMU7 5 T 1 FM sound of our own, which is widely used in a PC sound card or synthesizer (Note 1 I have a
`built-in). In addition to have prepared the tone of the 128 species as the standard library, since the polyphony of up to 4 sound is

`

`possible with diffurent tones each, expressive power of the music of the incoming sound will be greatly improved. In addition, addition
`to being able to play melodies high-quality sound in the perfonnance data of a compact size, and hardware sequencer that can also
`play a complex melody without putting a burden on the CPU of the mobile phone, to match the model of the speaker body and the
`shape of the phone In such a built-in equalizer circuit that can be corrected Te sound quality, It is designed in consideration the ease
`of use of the built-in to the phone. In addition, I am fit on one chip fur the first time in the industry as a sound source LSI for single
`item, 300mW amplifiers capable of driving dynamic speaker. This eliminates the need fur a separate speaker amplifier is eliminated,
`providing space saving.
`
`The Company also developed authoring tools, including fur due to this development of''YMU757", to maximize the perfunnance
`of''YMU757", a library of sounds, board evaluation, the software of the perfunnance data creation and editing We have. Authoring
`too~ will provide the content providers to develop perfunnance data. Further, in order to realize the content of the various funus as
`well as music-on-hold phone melody or ringtone new multi media fonnat that can be handled simultaneously with the melody still
`image data and text, and we are recommended.
`
`In addition, demonstrationringtone with ''YMU757", the Music on Hold< HttpJM7ww.Yamaha.Co.Jp/news/ymudemo.Html you
`can audition from>.
`
`The main features of the ''YMU757" are as follows.
`
`<Key Features>
`
`1. Music in high-quality melody ringtone
`The ''YMU757", I have a built-in FM sound ofYamaha's origina~ which is widely used in a PC sound card or synthesizer.
`In addition to tone (GM (*) or equivalent) of are provided 128 species as the standard library, in order to Umidasem
`sounds infinitely the principle, the sound of a music box bell sound or ofblack telephone style, such as Ya what works
`sound basis FM sound rhythm instrument sound is also pronounceable. 4 maximum sound, polyphony is possible to assign
`a diffurent tone each addition to the chord of fuur notes. For this reason, fur the melody ringtones by monotonous
`electronic sound of current, expressive power of music as gives you better. Furthermore, because it can be provided from
`the outside of the ''YMU757" not fixed, tone data can be reproduced by using the appropriate tone melodies each without
`being limited to the preset. * The standard for voice allocation GM ~General MIDI, MIDI (Note 2)
`
`2. Perlormance data capacity compact
`The FM sound system, the size of the perfunnance data can be small while playing melody high quality expressive, data
`transfer rate of mobile phone in the current, has become the perfunnance data of a size compact enough to fit memory
`capacity.
`
`3. Design thought convenience of built-in time
`In addition to a built-in hardware sequencer that can also play a complex melody without putting a burden on the CPU of
`the mobile phone, data input to the sequencer, to transfer perfunnance data from the memory of the mobile phone inside
`via the serial port Because you are taking a system, there is no limit of data capacity (playing time). It also has a friendly
`design and ease of use of the built-in time and also support the earphone output terminal capable of independent volume
`contra~ and feature-rich.
`
`4. Built-in equalizer circuit and speaker amplifier
`''YMU757" has been built for the first time in the industry as a sound source LSI for single item, 300mW amplifiers
`capable of driving dynamic speaker mounted to a mobile phone is common in the future. This space saving Accordingly, it
`is not necessary to separately prepare amplifier. In addition, we have a built-in equalizer circuit fur correcting the
`frequency characteristics that are diffurent for each model of the speaker and the body shape of the phone, can be

`pronmmced in optimmn smmd quality.
`
`5. Recommended data furmat authoring tools and the development
`
`The content provider for, I am also developing authoring tools, inclnding a library of smmds, board evaluation, the
`software of the performance data creation and editing. As a resuh, the melody ofhigh-quality smmd that can be developed
`content creators. In addition, not only the music on hold and melody ring tones, to be able to develop the content of a
`variety of furms and lyrics with melodies that can be used in practice, such as karaoke, and game fimction with music, at
`the same time that melody still image data and text It also developed a multi-media furmat that can be handled, and we are
`recommended.

`
`1) FM sound
`
`I mean frequency modulation stands fur Frequency Modulation and FM. The sound current method ofY amaha's original
`which can perform sound making on the basis of this principle. Electronic sound synthesis sound from natural instrmnents
`to, can be a wide range of sound making a relatively simple circuit using this method.
`
`2) MIDI (MIDI= Musical Instrument Digital Interlace)
`It is the one that has been digitized performance infurmation in the international standards to control and electronic musical
`instrmnent, in which timing, such as, play on the strength ofhow much. With this data, I can be controlled from other
