The research tools and instruments requested in this proposal will be used to make measurements for acoustic analyses and to verify computer models in the Computational Acoustic Modeling Laboratory (CAML) in the Schulich School of Music of McGill University. The overall goal of this research is to use novel measurement, digital signal processing, and computer-based modeling techniques to improve our understanding of the acoustical, fluid-dynamic, and mechanical principles governing music instruments. Scientific methods and tools will be developed in the course of this research program to: 1. assess the perceptually important features of high-quality instruments; 2. suggest possible improvements or simplifications to instrument designs; 3. improve virtual sound synthesis; and 4. aid in music pedagogy. The focus here is largely on music instruments, though these results will also have a wide range of potential technological, multimedia, and acoustical engineering applications.

本提案中要求的研究工具和仪器将用于进行声学分析的测量，并在麦吉尔大学Schulich音乐学院的计算声学建模实验室（CAML）中验证计算机模型。 本研究的总体目标是使用新的测量，数字信号处理和基于计算机的建模技术，以提高我们对乐器的声学，流体动力学和机械原理的理解。 科学方法和工具将在本研究计划的过程中开发：1。评估高质量仪器的感知重要特征; 2.对仪器设计提出可能的改进或简化; 3.改进虚拟声音合成;以及4.音乐教育学方面的帮助。 这里的重点主要是乐器，虽然这些结果也将有广泛的潜在技术，多媒体和声学工程应用。
