CONTROL DEVICE FOR MUSICAL INSTRUMENT

摘要

The invention concerns a control device for a musical instrument, in particular a carillon, comprising a first set of keys, each key being provided with a sensor and force adjusting means, said device comprising a second set of percussion elements, each key of the first set being assigned to a percussion element of the second set, the keys and the percussion elements being mechanically dissociated from one another, said force adjusting means being designed to apply to the key wherewith they are associated a static force substantially identical to that which the percussion element would have applied if it had been connected to the key and each sensor is designed to measure a displacement rate of the key wherewith it is associated, each sensor being connected to a first signal generator adapted to receive said displacement rate and to convert it into a first signal comprising said rate and an identification of the key associated with the sensor, said first generator being connected to a transmitter designed to transmit the first signal, each percussion element being connected to a servomotor of the percussion element, each servomotor being connected to a second signal generator which is connected to a receiver designed to receive the first signal, the second generator being designed to produce on the basis of the first signal a signal controlling the percussion element assigned to the sensor indicated in the first signal, each of the servomotors being designed to impose a percussion movement to the percussion element wherewith it is associated under the control of the automatic control signal.
