Resources for luthiers
In this page you can find some products and sevices that I offer to luthiers that are curious to gain a better undertanding of stringed instruments.
Tools for acoustic measurements and instrument design
Utilities
In the page utilities you can find some helpful widgets. You can use them to design some parts of the instruments based on scienfic approach.
Some of the things you can do are:
– Determining the position of frets on fretboards
– Calculating the density os wood boards and wedges
– Calculating the soundboard thickness based on the wood properties
If you want to get a deeper understanding of these topics, take a look at the section on the Workshp of acoustics for luthiers below.
Internal microphone for spectrum measurement
This little microphone is built to easily measure the instruments spectrum.
The capsule is very small and can be placed inside the instrument box with a smart magnetic positioning system.
It is equipped with a super flexible cable and can be connected to the computer with a regular USB port. It is plug and play and does not require any driver.
The microphone is available in two sizes:
- Regular size can be used on instruments with large sound holes such as guitars, ukuleles, etc.
- Miniaturized microphone has a smaller diameter (8 mm) and can easily fit throug violins and mandolins f-holes.
