Perceptual and Analytical Analysis of the effect of the Hammer Impact on the Piano Tones
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a model of the excitation corresponding to the hammer impact in a hybrid piano model. An experimental setup permits the measurement of the signal at the bridge location. The signal is separated into an excitation and resonant contribution. This work focuses on the modeling of the excitation part using both physical and perceptually relevant parameters. The resulting model can be used both in analysis/synthesis and transformation. Important piano performance parameters such as position and velocity of the hammer are inherent in the model.

Investigations in the amplitude of sounded piano tones.
The relationship between final hammer velocity and maximum amplitude of radiated piano sound was investigated. Piano tones with varying hammer velocities were produced by a computer-monitored acoustic piano containing optical sensors and solenoids, and the sounded tones were recorded and digitized for analysis. Maximum amplitudes over the duration of the sounded tones were linearly proportional...
متن کاملPerception of touch quality in piano tonesa)
Both timbre and dynamics of isolated piano tones are determined exclusively by the speed with which the hammer hits the strings. This physical view has been challenged by pianists who emphasize the importance of the way the keyboard is touched. This article presents empirical evidence from two perception experiments showing that touch-dependent sound components make sounds with identical hammer...

متن کاملA comparison between modal damping ratios identified by NExT-ERA and frequency domain impact test
In this research, the modal parameters of a beam in free-free condition are extracted by performing different experiments in laboratory. For this purpose, two different techniques are employed. The first methodology is considered as a time domain method in Operational Modal Analysis. While the other one is frequency domain impact hammer test which is categorized as an Experimental Modal Analysi...
متن کاملSome empirical observations on sound level properties of recorded piano tones.
Preliminary to an attempt at measuring the relative intensities of overlapping tones in acoustically recorded piano music, this study investigated whether the relative peak sound levels of recorded piano tones can be reliably inferred from the levels of their two lowest harmonics, measured in the spectrum near tone onset. Acoustic recordings of single tones were obtained from two computer-contr...
