A Preliminary Approach To The Realization Of Electroacoustic Zheng

The combination of music and technology often creates magic results.Electro-acoustic instruments are one of them.With the development of modern science technology and the diversification of instrumental forms,Electro-acoustic instruments,as the cross products of science technology and traditional musical instruments,have developed rapidly and become an important part of contemporary musical instrument culture.In order to adapt to the variety of musical styles and achieve a better performance of stage music,more and more national musical instruments are added to the process of Electrosonization,among which the traditional musical instrument Zheng is one of them.In the large stage performance,traditional Chinese musical instruments are often difficult to amplify the sound resonance and loudness due to the limitations of their own structure.Also the traditional amplification technology,when used improperly,will be unsuitable for the performance of traditional Chinese national musical instruments.However,with the aid of special Electroacoustical national instruments,it is often more advantageous in the amplification and tone reduction.The combination of certain Electroacoustic techniques and related electronic effectors can also produce novel timbre,providing inspiration for the innovation and development of folk music,and make it more integrative with various musical styles.In addition to the special pickup、optical sensor and other emerging technologies,it also adds a brand new color to the visual representation of the national instruments.This thesis belongs to the subject of music science and application,and it follows the research direction of music science and technology.Taking Zheng,a traditional Chinese national musical instrument,as the object of study,our study explores the realization of electroacoustics of Zheng and its application of relevant scientific and technological principles from the angle of electrophonation of national musical instrument.Our aim is to expand the new music language and the new way of Zheng expression.Our study is focused on the application of optical sensor technology in the electroacoustic experiment of Zheng,and we will innovate and develop the “Light Sensor Electronic Zheng System” as well as explore the R&D process with finishing the products in details.
