Abstract

See full text

A method and process to set the parameters of a Control Algorithm and to synthesize and generate a variety of sounds and vibration that are normally not available on a specific acoustic stringed instrument are disclosed. The technical problems of generating a different timbre, sound and vibration of a stringed acoustic instrument (Controlled Instrument) in real time are solved. The invention describes a process (Cloning Procedure) where specific set of parameters needed to imitate a target instrument are defined; The imitation of the Target Instrument's timbre on the Controlled Instrument is performed by the Control Algorithm which employs two digital Linear-Time-Invariant systems to drive the actuators based on by controlling the actuators with a couple of digital Linear-Time-Invariant systems that receive the vibration signal from the measurement apparatus. The process can be optionally deactivated, thus having the Controlled Instrument acting as a traditional acoustic instrument.
