PROCESSING CONTENTS DESIGNATING MEANS, INPUT METHOD AND DATA PROCESSOR

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a processing contents designating means for designating the processing contents to be executed by a simple operation at a terminal device. SOLUTION: This processing contents designating means comprises a processing designating part; a time series signal input part for inputting a time series signal; a rhythm pattern data storage part for storing rhythm pattern data by associating it with the processing contents; a rhythm pattern determining part; a processing contents executing part; and a sound reproducing part for reproducing sound on the basis of designated sound data. When the determining part determines that there is the rhythm pattern data same as or similar to the time series signal input in the storage part, an execution request is supplied to the executing part so as to execute the processing contents associated with the pattern data determined to be the same or similar one.
