abstract |
Physical differences between musical wind instruments lead to differences in their
resonance properties and, consequently, in their playing characteristics. In this
paper, input impedance measurements of notes from E3 to G6 in chromatic order are
made on five clarinets of different makes; altogether a total of 200 measurements.
A new approach to analysing differences between the magnitudes and frequencies of
the peaks across a large number of impedance curves is presented. Three variations
of the analysis approach are described as it is refined to give more useful results.
Observed differences in the impedance curves are used to make predictions about some
of the playing characteristics for particular notes on the five clarinets, for example
their relative intonations and playabilities. Finally, initial results comparing differences
in the impedance curves with the results of playing perception tests are discussed. |
