On the Use of Flute Air Jet as A Musical Control Variable
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper aims to present some perspectives on mapping embouchure gestures of flute players and their use as control variables. For this purpose, we have analyzed several types of sensors, in terms of sensitivity, dimension, accuracy and price, which can be used to implement a system capable of mapping embouchure parameters such as air jet velocity and air jet direction. Finally, we describe the implementation of a sensor system used to map embouchure gestures of a classical Boehm flute.

An augmented flute for beginners
Learning to play the transverse flute is not an easy task, at least not for everyone. Since the flute does not have a reed to resonate, the player must provide a steady, focused stream of air that will cause the flute to resonate and thereby produce sound. In order to achieve this, the player has to be aware of the embouchure position to generate an adequate air jet. For a beginner, this can be...
متن کاملRecent progress in the acoustics of wind instruments
Progress made over the past decade in understanding the mechanisms of sound production in music wind instruments is reviewed. The behavior of air columns, horns, and fingerholes is now fairly well understood, and most recent interest centers on details of the sound generator — the reed in woodwinds, the lips in brass instruments, and the air jet in flute-family instruments. Not only do these ge...
متن کاملLinear-response reflection coefficient of the recorder air-jet amplifier.
In a duct-flute such as the recorder, steady-state oscillations are controlled by two parameters, the blowing pressure and the frequency of the acoustic resonator. As in most feedback oscillators, the oscillation amplitude is determined by gain-saturation of the amplifier, and thus it cannot be controlled independently of blowing pressure and frequency unless the feedback loop is opened. In thi...
متن کاملNumerical Investigation on Slot air Jet impingement Heat Transfer between Horizontal Concentric Circular Cylinders
A numerical study has been carried out for slot air jet impingement cooling of horizontal concentric circular cylinders. The slot air jet is situated at the symmetry line of a horizontal cylinder along the gravity vector and impinges on the bottom of the outer cylinder which is designated as θ=0°. The outer cylinder is partially opened at the top with a width of W=30mm and is kept at constant t...
متن کاملModeling and Multi-Objective Optimization of Stall Control on NACA0015 Airfoil with a Synthetic Jet using GMDH Type Neural Networks and Genetic Algorithms
This study concerns numerical simulation, modeling and optimization of aerodynamic stall control using a synthetic jet actuator. Thenumerical simulation was carried out by a large-eddy simulation that employs a RNG-based model as the subgrid-scale model. The flow around a NACA0015 airfoil, including a synthetic jet located at 10 % of the chord, is studied under Reynolds number Re = 12.7 × 106 a...
