Physics 1251 The Science and Technology of Musical Sound Unit 3 Session 34 MWF Percussion with Pitch
Physics 1251 Unit 3 Session 34 Percussion with Pitch A percussionist has two nearly identical cymbals. They have identical fundamental frequencies, but one is 15 inches in diameter while the other is 14 inches in diameter. What must be true about the two? The larger cymbal must be about 15% thicker than the smaller one, since the frequency is proportional to the thickness and inversely proportional to the square of the diameter.
Physics 1251 Unit 3 Session 34 Percussion with Pitch 1′ Lecture: • • • Piano strings exhibit inharmonicity because of the stiffness of the wire. Some percussion instruments have pitch. Pitch results from a harmonic series of overtones. Tympani and Tabla are pitched drums. Orchestra Chimes, Glockenspiel, Xylophone, Marimba and Vibraphone have intonation.

Physics 1251 Unit 3 Session 34 Percussion with Pitch task of producing pitch in a percussion instrument is an exercise in manipulating the overtones into a harmonic series. Amplitude 80/20 The fn m = xn m f 10 Unpitched f 01 fn = n f 1 2 f 1 Frequency Pitched 3 f 1 4 f 1
Physics 1251 Unit 3 Session 33 Percussion The Modes of vibration of an ideal string are harmonic. Tension T L Linear density μ • Linear density μ= mass/length • Tension T= force fn = n /(2 L) ‧ √(T/ μ) n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7…. The stiffness of the wire increases the frequency of the higher frequency harmonics. ₧ = 3986¢ Log(nf 1 /440) + I(₧) = Inharmonicity

Physics 1251 Unit 3 Session 34 Percussion with Pitch Air Loading of a Clamped Membrane Surface density σ Surface Tension S The mass of air moved by the membrane adds to the effective surface density, lowering the frequency. Air mass
Physics 1251 Unit 3 Session 34 Percussion with Pitch 80/20 The kettle of Tympani modifies the membrane frequencies by the interaction of the air resonances with the surface modes. Modes of air vibration

Physics 1251 Unit 3 Session 34 Percussion with Pitch What is the different between a Xylophone, a Marimba and a Vibraphone? • • The depth of the undercut: a marimba is undercut more than a xylophone. The first harmonic of a xylophone is 3 x the fundamental, for a marimba and “vibe” it is 4 x. The xylophone sounds “brighter” and the marimba more “mellow. ” Vibes have a tremolo mechanism.
