    摘要: A novel pivoting anchor assembly (70) for a tremolo mechanism (10) includes a pivot support structure, a pivot and an anchor structure for receiving and holding an end of a tensioned string (12). In a preferred embodiment, the pivoting anchor assembly includes a rate screw (73) mounted on a pivoting tuning arm (91), the rate screw receiving: an anchor block (71) including a string end anchor (72); a jaw opening (77); and a knife edge (76) extending into the jaw opening (77). An upper portion of the rate screw includes a circumferential knife edge seat (75) and extends through the jaw opening such that the knife edge (76) is received within the knife edge seat, so as to form a knife edge pivot (86).

    摘要: A reluctance pickup (50) for a guitar (100) including a pair of magnetic pole pieces (20, 22) disposed within wire coils (26, 28). The coils are oppositely wound and wired in series. Each pole piece has an elongated magnetic pole end extending above its respective coil. The pole pieces are disposed so as to form a pickup face having two approximately parallel elongated pole ends. The elongated pole ends have opposite magnetic polarities and create a magnetic field therebetween. The pickup is mounted beneath a magnetically permeable string (102) such that a projection of the string intersects the pole ends at a selected orientation angle between approximately 28 degrees and approximately 58 degrees, preferably, 43 degrees, so as to optimize selected performance parameters of the pickup, including: channel-to-channel separation, frequency response, and dynamic response.

    摘要: Systems for distributing music to a plurality of customers via the Internet provide each customer with a uniquely identified proprietary device for receiving, playing and recording music. A music server computer system (100) is provided for distributing the music to the proprietary devices over the Internet. The system provides for tracking usage of the music on the proprietary devices and reporting the usage data over the Internet to the music server computer system. The system provides for the secure distribution of digital music content over the Internet to consumers in a manner that allows efficient and economical usage of the content by consumers, while providing adequate usage reporting to copyright owners and providing adequate copy protection to prohibit unauthorized usage.

    摘要: A hydrophobic polymer (50) is adhesively coated on the surfaces of the wound string (10) within its interstitial voids (20), while the exterior surfaces (36) remain uncoated. The polymer is applied by soaking the string in a liquid polymeric solution to flow the solution into the interstitial voids. The string is removed from the bath and the residual solution is removed from the exterior surface of the string using a resilient scraper. The string is hung to dry for 8 hours in a clean room environment at ambient temperatures and, more preferably, maintained at a temperature of between 20° C and 25° C. Alternatively, the string is treated by a combination of heat and drying.

    摘要: A cabinet (10) for display of a stringed musical instrument (70), wherein the stringed musical instrument is oriented horizontally and is held in place within the cabinet by the supports which engage the strap buttons (72) of the instrument. The device is optionally attachable to a wall. In one embodiment, the supports are angled brackets (30, 31) with notches (37) for receiving the strap buttons. A protective material (40) is applied on each support and the interior surface of the cabinet to avoid abrasion of the instrument surface. The orientation of the angled brackets is such that the visible profile of the brackets is very small when an instrument is displayed in the cabinet.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for the real-time creation of an output audio signal from an input signal (110) with an unwanted or noise portion (118). The system detects the unwanted portion (118) of the input signal by utilizing an adaptive detection filter (120) and reduces the unwanted portion of the input signal. The reduction of the unwanted portion is performed by compression of the unwanted signal, subtraction of the unwanted portion of the signal, or eliminating the output signal until the unwanted portion is no longer detected (126). The system is specifically designed to find a high frequency and high amplitude sound such as a sibilant.
