A Wearable Trigger Electronic Music System that can be adopted for simulating any kind of music, anywhere, any time. As for example one can create all the benefits of the percussion instrument such as a drum kit but without the cost and burden of a drum kit. Same also applies to string, wind and other types of instruments of any nation, any culture, any motif, any era any age etc. The system includes all its constituent components including sensors, transducers, electronics, music module, pre-amps and amplifiers, wired or wireless to connections for intra and inter modules including final enjoyment by wired or wireless headphones or speakers. Also delineated is the process of creating music for the DIY enthusiast.

An electronic musical instrument provides a player with an assisted performance to offer him / her the pleasure of performing on a musical instrument, and to help him / her in practicing the electronic musical instrument on which a tone pitch of a musical tone to be generated is determined in accordance with the operation of a combination of performance operators, as in the case of a wind instrument such as a trumpet. A number of operating modes are provided to allow the player to independently practice their ability with respect to one or more performance operators or to simply play the electronic musical instrument without an assisted performance.

In an apparatus for assisting play of a wind instrument, an actuator is attached to the wind instrument for vibrating a portion of the wind instrument so as to assist play of the wind instrument. A microphone receives a vibration of a sound generated by the wind instrument and generates a vibration signal representing the vibration of the sound. A breath pressure sensor detects a pressure of a breath that is blown into the wind instrument during the play thereof, and generates a breath pressure signal corresponding to the detected pressure of the breath. A controller generates a control signal corresponding to the product of an inverse value of an envelope of the vibration signal and a value of the breath pressure signal. A variable gain amplifier amplifies the vibration signal with a variable gain which varies in response to the control signal so that an output signal of the variable gain amplifier is provided to enable the excitation part to vibrate the portion of the wind instrument.

A synthetic reed for use in reed-blown wind instruments such as the clarinets, saxophones, oboes and bassoons may be made from an oriented thermoplastic material such as uniaxially oriented polypropylene. The reed may have a profile that is thinner near the tip and in the vamp than the profile of a cane reed of equivalent playing strength, and may be machined from an oriented polymer blank has a higher longitudinal modulus than that of said cane reed of equivalent playing strength.

Detection is made of a physical amount caused by operation performed on a mouthpiece with a human player's mouth, and a tone pitch corresponding to the detected physical amount is identified by referencing a memory storing information defining relationship between various ranges of the physical amount and tone pitches. Expected tone generating style is notified to the player based on the identified tone pitch. The memory contains a pitch table defining relationship between various ranges of the physical amount and tone pitches, and a gain table defining gain information corresponding to deviations of the physical amount from a predetermined reference point for each tone pitch and within the range of the physical amount corresponding to the tone pitch. For the detected physical amount, a tone pitch and gain information are identified by referencing the pitch gain tables, so that the identified tone pitch and gain information is notified.

A wind instrument, includes: a hollow tube having an open lower or distal end; a mouth hole formed in an upper or proximal portion the tube; a first set of holes including three holes formed in the tube for application of an index finger, a middle finger and a ring finger of an upper hand of a user; and a second set of hole including five holes formed in the tube for application of a thumb, an index finger, a middle finger, a ring finger and a pinky finger of a lower hand of the user. Another wind instrument, includes: a hollow tube having an open lower or distal end; a mouth hole formed in an upper or proximal portion the tube; a first finger support attached to and extending away from the tube; and a second finger support attached to and extending away from the tube.

The invention provides drilling equipment for Li nationality wind instrument. The drilling equipment comprises a drilling supporting table, a position adjusting box is fixed to the top of the drilling supporting table, a rotating lead screw is horizontally arranged in an inner cavity of the position adjusting box, a servo motor is installed at the position, located on the right side of the position adjusting box, of the top of the drilling supporting table, and the output end of the left side of the servo motor is sleeved with a driving rotating wheel; the driving rotating wheel is sleeved with a connecting rotary rod, the left side of the connecting rotary rod rotationally penetrates through the side wall of the right end of the drilling supporting table and is fixed to the right side of a rotary lead screw, the outer wall of the rotary lead screw is sleeved with two sets of movable sliding sleeves in a threaded connection mode, and movable adjusting rods are fixed to the tops of the two sets of movable sliding sleeves and located above the position adjusting box to be sleeved with movable fastening sleeves; according to the invention, a movable sliding sleeve drives a movable adjusting rod and a movable fastening sleeve at the top to move horizontally, then different positions of the Li nationality blowpipe are punched, a second rotating sleeve is driven to rotate, the Li nationality blowpipe is driven to rotate, and then different angle positions of the Li nationality blowpipe are punched.

The invention relates to a musical instrument, particularly to a reed-pipe wind instrument. The reed-pipe wind instrument comprises a casing, a plurality of sound amplifying tubes and a plurality of reeds, wherein the sound amplifying tubes are inserted into the casing, and the reeds are arranged in the casing. The reed-pipe wind instrument is characterized in that a plurality of keys are arranged on the casing, the lower ends of the keys are connected with an expansion device capable of being communicated with an air chamber which comprises a main air chamber and an auxiliary air chamber, the main air chamber is communicated with an air inlet tube, and the auxiliary air chamber is communicated with the sound amplifying tubes through a sound producing tube. The wind instrument has the advantages that the expansion device is compressed to put the air in the main air chamber into the auxiliary air chamber which is connected with the sound amplifying tubes through the sound producing tube, the structure is simple, the production is convenient, primary sound amplifying tubes are additionally arranged on the basis of the sound amplifying tubes, therefore secondary sound amplification is achieved, the produced sound is large and mellow and full in tone.

Ligature for woodwind instruments, such as a clarinet or saxophone, having a receiving block (4), which is designed to clamp a reed (1) to a mouthpiece (2) of the woodwind instrument, while preventing twisting and / or sliding, by exerting a compressive force (14) on the reed (1), so that an axis of symmetry or longitudinal direction (1f) of the reed (1f) is aligned with an axis of symmetry or longitudinal direction of a bearing surface of the mouthpiece (2), characterized in that the receiving block (4) is designed to receive the reed (1) in a force-fitting manner and / or to establish a form fit with at least one side surface (1d) of the reed (1).
