Factors affecting transients in the speech of reed and flue pipes on mechanical action organs

Factors affecting transients in the speech of reed and flue pipes on mechanical action organs

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Conference contribution

Abstract / Description of output

This paper describes an initial investigation into the speaking characteristics of reed organ pipes. There are a wide variety of pipes and individual pipe makers and voicers adopt their own processes. Measurements were taken of threshold and full speech for a range of resonator lengths. Much has been written about transient control on pipe organs and the paper considers how the characteristics identified might lead to varying transients.
