Action-sound Latency and the Perceived Quality of Digital Musical Instruments

Music Perception, 2018
Asynchrony between tactile and auditory feedback (action-sound latency) when playing a musical instrument is widely recognized as disruptive to musical performance.

The Digitalization of Musical Instruments and Musical Practice

2019
Facing the possibilities of digital music production and the Internet, the “digital revolution” promised to bring about new aesthetic possibilities as well as a democratization of music culture. How did the promises play out in the experience of musicians?

Electronic musical instrument with digital filter

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1990
A pitch synchronizing signal snychronized with the pitch of a digital tone signal to be filtered is generated by a pitch synchronizing signal generation circuit. A digital filter circuit which receives the digital tone signal and imparts it with a desired tone color by subjecting it to a proper filter operation executes this filter operation with a ...

The digital audio player as aleatory musical instrument

Proceedings of Meetings on Acoustics, 2010
The digital audio file player is an ideal instrument for the performance of aleatory music. The near-instantaneous seek time coupled with random track playback yields the possibility of nonlinear musical arrangements. In this is the potential to create unique and unrepeatable listening experiences—music that constantly renews and reinvents itself, free

Vibration measurement of musical instruments using digital speckle pattern shearing interferometry

International Conference on Optical and Photonic Engineering
The structure and material of a musical instrument decisively influence its vibration modes. In turn, the precise measurement of vibration aiding in analyzing the structural and material properties of the musical instrument, and ultimately provides a ...

Modelling musical instruments in the digital domain

ICASSP '84. IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 2005
Digital hardware may be used to generate waveforms as well as to process already-existing waveforms. Several digital synthesis techniques are in use today, most of whose advantages lie in their computational efficiency rather than their utility. Only the methods of synthesis known as additive and subtractive, however, are accompanied by a suitable ...

Digital arpeggio system for electronic musical instrument

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1981
An arpeggio system, utilizing bipolar digital logic devices in all control and sequencing functions, generates a variety of arpeggio and strum note patterns. A key operated switch enables a NOR logic note gate, or a series of octavely related note gates, and activates a system clock which causes a pulse to be transmitted along a chain of shift ...

Digital music instruments and sound expression

2008
The main goal of this paper is to describe certain aspects of the construction of a prototype, while introducing generally some of the key issues resulting of the design of its interface. The word LeinKlang (from the German) means sound (Klang) screen (Leinwand). This project consists in the construction of a digital music instrument.

An Accessible Digital Musical Instrument for Inclusive Music Therapy

Accessible Digital Musical Instruments (ADMIs) have emerged as promising tools for enabling musical expression among individuals with severe motor impairments. However, many ADMIs require technical knowledge for configuration and evaluation, posing a barrier for music therapists without engineering backgrounds.
