The taxonomy of a clarinet tangible acoustic interface

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:This article discusses the effectiveness of a Clarinet Tangible Acoustic Interface (CTAI), comparing it to two other systems: sound capture through a pickup inserted in the barrel and sound capture through an external microphone. These analyses aim to give information to those clarinettists or other instrumentalists working with electronic devices, giving them data on the systems analysed and their features. Several options were tested and recorded as a methodology to provide data for the analyses in two subjects: (1) different implementations of the CTAI system in the clarinet; (2) comparing the three systems on pitch capture, amplification, processing the sound, using a clarinet as an interface, ergonomic posture, and cost. Also, this article pretends to validate using a clarinet as a Tangible Acoustic Interface. For this purpose, it will present an introduction with historical concepts, a development with the explanation of the CTAI system, its implementation, a capture design of all devices and data and its analyses, a conclusion, and future work.
