Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum automatischen Stimmen eines Saiteninstrumentes, insbesondere einer E-Gitarre, wobei mittels eines von einer Steuerung automatisch ansteuerbaren Antriebes und eine an den Antrieb gekoppelte Saitenspanneinrichtung zumindest eine zu stimmende Saite gespannt bzw. entspannt wird, um diese Saite auf einen vorgebbaren Grundton zu stimmen. Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein solches Verfahren anzugeben, welches ohne einen Abgleich zwischen einem Ist-Ton und einem Soll-Ton (einer Ist-Frequenz und einer Soll-Frequenz) auskommt, um zumindest eine erste Anfangsstimmung zu erreichen, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass zumindest für eine Vorstimmung eine zum Halten der Saiten in der aktuellen Spannung durch den Antrieb aufgebrachte Zugkraft bzw. ein entsprechendes Drehmoment bestimmt und dieser Wert mit einem für eine Saitenspannung bei korrekter Stimmung bestimmten Vergleichswert verglichen und bei Abweichung von diesem Vergleichswert der Antrieb derart angesteuert wird, dass er die Saite mit einer diesem Vergleichswert entsprechenden Kraft bzw. einem solchen Drehmoment in Spannung hält.
