Construction of a System for Recognizing Touch of Strings for Guitar
نویسندگان
چکیده
In guitar performance, fingering is an important factor. In particular, the fingering of the left hand comprises various relationships between the finger and the string, such as the finger touching/pressing/releasing the strings. The recognition of the precise fingering is applied to a self-learning support system, which is able to detect strings being muted by a finger, and which transcribes music automatically, including the details of fingering techniques. Therefore, the goal of our study is to construct a system for recognizing the touch of strings for the guitar. We propose a method for recognizing the touch of strings based on the conductive characteristics of strings and frets. We develop a prototype system, and evaluate its effectiveness. Furthermore, we propose an application that utilizes our system.

The physics of unwound and wound strings on the electric guitar applied to the pitch intervals produced by tremolo/vibrato arm systems
The physics of wound and unwound strings on the electric guitar are presented here, and the pitch intervals produced by the movements of a Fender Stratocaster tremolo unit are explained. Predicted changes in pitch sensitivity of different strings are given, and experimentally verified, for changes in saddle height, the distance of string free to move behind the nut and ratio of diameters/masses...
متن کاملFeedback lapsteel : exploring tactile transducers as string actuators
The Feedback Lap Steel is an actuated instrument that makes use of mechanical vibration of the instruments bridge to excite the strings. A custom bridge mounted directly to a tactile transducer enables the strings to be driven with any audio signal from a standard audio amplifier. The instrument can be played as a traditional lap steel guitar without any changes to playing technique as well as ...

In this paper, an innovated method is used for cooling Milling zone of Stainless Steel via Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) using non-touch laser thermometer for non-touch measuring of the temperature. This method is economically appropriate because of its optimization in using coolant. In comparison to the ways which were designed to optimize the ratio of coolant, this method is t...
متن کاملNonlinear vibration analysis of axially moving strings in thermal environment
In this study, nonlinear vibration of axially moving strings in thermal environment is investigated. The vibration haracteristics of the system such as natural frequencies, time domain response and stability states are studied at different temperatures. The velocity of the axial movement is assumed to be constant with minor harmonic variations. It is presumed that the system and the environment...
