متن کاملA Player Model for Midi Control of Synthetic Bowed Strings
As the underlying physical processes of bowed string instruments have been investigated extensively and are understood well, it becomes clear that the instrument model on its own is not sufficient for realistic synthesis of bowed strings. Controlling the parameters for the excitation of the string model is comparable to playing the real instrument, and the design of algorithms controlling the a...
متن کاملThe STRIMIDILATOR, a String Controlled MIDI-Instrument
The STRIMIDILATOR is an instrument that uses the deviation and the vibration of strings as MIDI-controllers. This method of control gives the user direct tactile force feedback and allows for subtle control. The development of the instrument and its different functions are described.
