“…The study of the connection between global modes, previously identified through the EMA, and the violin sonic emission was performed applying a set of near-field holography measures. Results supported the identification of sonic sources connected with modes previously identified in the literature for the same violin [28]. However, the detected sources were better defined above ~600 Hz, due to the existing non-linear effects at lower frequencies.…”

“…Second, the vibro-acoustic fingerprint can support the optimal set-up of new and old violins for performance purposes. In particular, a work proved that, depending on the soundpost position, variations in the modal behaviour of the instrument can be detected [28]. Moreover, the same work proved that the theoretical position for the soundpost does not correspond necessarily to the best vibrational performance of a violin.…”

Violins are wooden musical instruments, whose quality is mainly evaluated on the basis of their aesthetics, as well as depending on the historical relevance of their makers. However, their acoustic quality remains a key evaluation parameter for performers and listeners. The instrument perceived quality, in turn, depends on one side, on the player, the environmental conditions and on the listeners’ psychoacoustic factors. On the other side, the quality of a violin depends on its materials, constructive and set-up parameters, that impact on the vibro-acoustical characteristics of the instrument. This work investigates a procedure for the vibro-acoustic characterization of a violin, here called vibro-acoustic fingerprint, as an example of vibro-acoustical characterization of a wooden music instrument. The procedure was applied, as a case study, to an Italian contemporary violin, built on the basis of a Guarneri del Gesù model in the year 2011.

“…Second, the vibro-acoustic fingerprint can support the optimal set-up of new and old violins for performance purposes. In particular, a work proved that, changing the position of the sound-post, being a mobile component of a violin, variations in the modal behaviour of the instrument can be detected [25]. Moreover, the same work proved that the theoretical position for the sound-post does not correspond necessarily to the best vibrational performance of a violin.…”

Violins are complex wooden musical instruments, whose quality is mainly evaluated on the basis of their aesthetics, as well as depending on the historical relevance of their makers. However their acoustic quality remains a key evaluation parameter for performers and listeners. The instrument perceived quality, in turn, depends, on one side, on the player, the environmental conditions and on the listeners' psychoacoustic factors. On the other side, the quality of a violin depends on its materials, constructive and setup parameters, that impact on the vibro-acoustical characteristics of the instrument. This work investigates a procedure for the vibro-acoustic characterization of a violin, here called vibro-acoustic fingerprint, as an example of vibro-acoustical characterization of a wooden music instrument. The procedure was applied, as a case study, to an Italian contemporary violin, built in the year 2011 by the violin-maker Enzo Cena on a Guarneri del Gesù model.
