Thanks to the popularization of online videogames and communication tools through the Internet, different soundboard software has appeared. Note the following developments: EXP Soundboard (open source and compatible with WAV and MP3 audio files) Soundpad, or with more features Noise-o-matic, Resanance or Voicemod (combining a voice changer, a voice generator and a soundboard in the same app.)
The soundboard, depending on the instrument, is called a soundboard, top, top plate, resonator, table, sound-table, or belly. It is usually made of a softwood, often spruce. [6] More generally, any hard surface can act as a soundboard. An example is when someone strikes a tuning fork and holds it against a table top to amplify its sound.
The laouto also tends to have only one sound hole (sometimes two) whereas the oud family tend to have three. Despite this, there are many similarities between the laouto and the oud. The soundboard is often made of spruce or cedar wood, while the body is usually made of a harder wood such as maple or walnut. This is a practice consonant with ...
The fingerboard is on the same plane as the soundboard, with a bridge glued onto the soundboard. Strings are secured in the pegboard in the neck, pass over the fingerboard and soundboard and are tied to a flat bridge, which is glued to the soundboard. [19] The instrument may have as few as four strings or as many as six.
The sound hole is not open, but rather covered with a grille in the form of an intertwining vine or a decorative knot, carved directly out of the wood of the soundboard. The geometry of the lute soundboard is relatively complex, involving a system of barring that places braces perpendicular to the strings at specific lengths along the overall ...
A soundboard recording is a sound recording of a concert taken from a direct connection to the soundboard at the venue. Soundboard recordings are considered to be among the highest quality bootleg recordings of live performances [1] [2] [3] though some soundboard recordings may have an off-balance audio mix. [4]
The fretboard of a modern guitar extends down over the soundboard all the way to the sound hole. However, the lute guitar's fretboard may be on the same level as the soundboard and stop at the bottom of the neck, with the additional frets continuing down the soundboard independently, similar to the lute's. The fretboard is occasionally scalloped.
Molo is the name given to a lute by the Hausa people of Niger and northern Nigeria and the Songhay people of Niger. [1] In Ghana, it is called Mɔɣlo in Dagbanli. [2] Molo is the name used for a specific type of African lute, one that has a boat-shaped body or soundbox, carved from wood and a round dowel for a neck. [1]
