SOUND GENERATING DEVICE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sound generating device that configures a substrate compactly using real flash as a memory for storing both waveform sample data read out by a sound source part and a program read out by a CPU and that can secure as many musical sound generating channels as before even when the real flash is used.SOLUTION: A sound generating device includes a serial memory 121 for storing waveform data composed of a plurality of waveform samples and a control program composed of a plurality of program codes, sound source parts 102 to 107, and a processor. An access part 108 performs one reading access in response to a waveform sample request issued from the sound source parts to supply a waveform sample read out by the reading access to the sound source parts. At the same time, the access part 108 performs one reading access in response to a fetch request issued from the processor to supply a program code read out by the reading access to the processor.
