Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a new musical method for keyboard instruments and struck strings or similar instruments, as well as a pedal mechanism adapted to this new method.
  • the present invention aims to offer new possibilities for play and writing. This objective is achieved in the sense that according to the invention, the effect of the strong pedal with regard to notes about to be played is interrupted while retaining this effect with regard to the notes which have just been played. played.
  • the means used for the implementation of this process can take the form of a memory, the practical realization of which is within the reach of those skilled in the art drawing inspiration from what is known. when it comes to tonal pedal. In the case of traditional instruments, the practical solution is mechanical.
  • each damper is individually subjected to a comparable pair of biasing means, one of which depends on a harmonic bar and the other of which depends on the damper and a so-called harmonic pedal is provided which activates the harmonic bar to separate all the dampers from all of the strings, the simultaneous depression of the harmonic pedal and a key causing the separation of the couple of biasing means in relation to the damper which equips the corresponding string to this key.
  • the string corresponding to a key vibrates only for the duration of pressing on this key, the damper muffling the note played by letting the harmonics of the bass strings sound, generated by sympathy.
  • This allows you to play a harmonic pedal depressed a full phrase of the same harmony without raising the pedal with each embroidery, while respecting the musical articulations.
  • each damper is carried by a damper support.
  • the harmonic bar is rotatably mounted around its longitudinal axis and each pair of biasing means comprises an exhaust nut projecting at the periphery of the harmonic bar and capable of coming in and out of engagement with an exhaust spring dependent on the damper support, the harmonic pedal causing by the inter- diary of the harmonic bar, of said sillets and of said springs, the overall stress of the supports of 1 damper, while the individual stress of each damper support by the corresponding spoon under the effect of the depression of a key, causes, when the harmonic pedal is depressed, _ separation between the nut and the spring of the ét ⁇ uffoi-r support. corresponding to said key, without the subsequent release of this key restoring the engagement of said nut and said spring.
  • the harmonic pedal can be a pedal added to the existing game on pianos (pedal of strong, muted pedal, pedal tonal), it is completely preferable that the pedal of strong and the harmonic pedal are only one and the same mixed pedal likely to be depressed halfway or fully depressed, the semi-depression of the pedal corresponding to the harmonic position, for which the damper supports remain accessible to the spoons when the keys are actuated, while the depression is complete of the pedal, corresponds to the strong pedal position, for which said strong bar prevents the return of the supports of 1 dampers towards the strings.
  • the function tonal according to the invention allows to keep in resonance an entire arpeggio, a whole series of two, three or five chords.
  • FIG. 4 schematically represents the configuration of the mechanism according to the invention at rest, applied to an upright piano
  • FIG. 5 represents the same configuration as in FIG. 4 but with the support of the mixed pedal in the harmonic position, without depression of the key,
  • FIG. 6 represents the same configuration as in FIG. 5 but with depression of the key
  • FIG. 7 represents the phase following that illustrated in FIG. 6, when the key is released
  • FIG. 8 shows the same configuration as in Figure 5 but with the support of the mixed pedal in the strong position, without depression of the button.
  • a “strong” bar 12 capable of translational movement towards and away from the damper support 4 "A mixed pedal, not shown, having a depressed position at mid-stroke called” semi -depressed “and a totally depressed position called” depressed ", is adapted to actuate the harmonic bar 11 in semi-depressed position and the strong bar 12 in depressed position.
  • the invention is applicable to existing instruments: to do this, the original forte bar is connected to the harmonic bar provided in the structure according to the invention, and the original forte pedal is replaced by the mixed pedal according to the invention.
