Abstract

See full text

Waking-up a violin or other instrument by determining naturally resonating features of a particular instrument by applying tones and analyzing the instrument's responses, and then applying vibrations (e.g., continuously and/or in patterns, such as alternating on/off, staccato, etc.) corresponding to the most responsive (resonant) portions of the instrument's responses (e.g., peaks of the analyzed instrument's response) fully breaking in the various parts of the instrument. The applied vibrations are continued until the instrument's amplitude response plateaus.
