    摘要: Method for storage, transcription, manipulation and reproduction of music on system-controlled musical instruments which faithfully reproduces the characteristics of acoustic musical instruments. The system comprises a music source, a Central Processing Unit (CPU) and a CPU-controlled plurality of instrument transducers in the form of any number of acoustic or acoustic hybrid instruments. In one embodiment, performance information is sent from a music source MIDI controller to the CPU, edited in the CPU, converted into an electrical signal, and sent to instrument transducers via transducer drivers. In another embodiment, individual performances stored in a digital or sound tape medium are reproduced at will through the instrument transducers, or converted into MIDI data by pitch/frequency detection/analyzation device for storage/editing/performance in the CPU. In still another embodiment, performance information is extracted from an electronic recording medium or live performance by a pitch/frequency detection/device, edited in the CPU, converted into an electrical signal, and sent to any number of instrument transducers. The device also eliminates acoustic musical instrument delay problems.

    摘要: In the present invention, performance sample passages are used as source material to drive the transducers of a controlled musical instrument, such as the strings of a violin. The performance sample passage method permits the faithful recreation of a musical performance without the limiting effects of speakers. Alternatively, analog/digital synthesizers, tape or other recording media, monophonic/polyphonic pitch recognition/MIDI conversion methods or any electrical signals are used as sources to drive the transducers of a controlled instrument. The invention uses magnets with steel pole pieces positioned on either side of a transducer, such as a metallic string or rod of a controlled instrument. Said metallic string or rod can be either double or single anchored, or utilize any combination of anchoring means. Insulation between the pole pieces and magnets is utilized to isolate the coils from the magnets and pole pieces. String dampers are used to recreate a violin bow's damping and string focusing effects.
