The BRASS Project, from Physical Models to Virtual Musical Instruments: Playability Issues
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Brass project aims to deliver software virtual musical instruments (trumpet, trombone, tenor saxophone) based on physical modelling. This requires to work on some aspects of the playability of the models so that they can be played in real time through a simple keyboard : better control of the attacks, automatic tuning, humanization.

Virtual Acoustic Musical Instruments: Review and Update
This article gives an overview of selected developments in musical sound synthesis based on physical models of musical instruments—sometimes called “virtual acoustic” sound synthesis. Emphasis is placed on techniques which yield the highest playability and sound quality in real time at a reasonable computational expense.
متن کاملInfluence of Attack Parameters on the Playability of a Virtual Bowed String Instrument
The transient behavior of a virtual bowed string is measured under different conditions of bow-force and bowvelocity onset. The results are compared with the constant-force, constant-velocity case, and with published physical measurements made using a bowing machine. Issues related to “playability” of virtual bowed-string instruments are discussed.
متن کاملComparisons between models and measurements of the input impedance of brass instruments bells
This work is part of a project aiming at helping craftsmen to design and characterize their musical instruments. Starting from a given wind instrument shape, our objective consists in choosing the most relevant physical model able to predict the acoustical input impedance of this musical instrument once constructed. The modeling of bells in brass instruments is still problematic as the limits o...
متن کاملWomen in Brass: re-examining gendered involvement in music, a preliminary report in to Musical Preference Stereotypes
The dearth of females playing so-called masculine instruments has not gone unnoticed, but frameworks for investigating females’ participation have been driven almost entirely by a feminist agenda. A construct for studying gendered participation in music, employing a post feminist perspective is presented. As one of the major areas in which female participation does not match their male counterp...
متن کاملPhysical modelling concepts for a collection of multisensory virtual musical instruments
This paper discusses how haptic devices and physical modelling can be employed to design and simulate multisensory virtual musical instruments, providing the musician with joint audio, visual and haptic feedback. After briefly reviewing some of the main use-cases of haptics in Computer Music, we present GENESIS-RT, a software and hardware platform dedicated to the design and real-time haptic pl...
