44e. Vibration beat--C(66Hz)--COMPARISON--Top plate--


TOP PLATE:
When the cello is not set up with endpin, the vibration beat pattern of top plate changes like (5),4,3,2,3,4,3,2,3,4,3,2..
Meanwhile, with endpin, on the floor, the pattern also fluctuated like (*),4,3,2,3,2,3,2,, It seemes a little bit to be mollified.

LOWER BOUTS:
With endpin or(/and) on the floor, lower bouts take multi-beat. Many kind of vibration might be delivered to the lower-bouts.

ENDPIN:
The vibration beat of endpin also fluctuated for C(66Hz) note.
It was not like the lower-bouts but rather resembles the pattern of top plate.

DURATION OF VIBRATION:
Top plate's duration does not seem to be affected so much whether the endpin is set up or not.
However the duration of lower-bouts seems to be clearly shorten by the deployment of endpin.
This phenomenon might suggest that the center resonance area slightly be shifted to the upper hemisphere and losing some enough low note resonance.

-MEMO-
New measurements sometimes bring a new finding. Additional works for E(331Hz) and B(H,496Hz) on 'A' string will be carried out.

Comment:

(1) Cello's top plate and also the endpin continues the clear vibration over 3 seconds after a  pizzicato of G note(open string).

(2) The vibration of the lower bouts gradually fades out around after 1.6 - 2.5 second when the endpin is set up and placed on the floor.

The lower bouts and tailpin might to be acting a role as a fulcrum of seesaw. If this is true, there is a possibility that the center resonance area of modern cello('endpin-cello') might slightly be shifted to the upper hemisphere as compared with the design of Stradivali, Montagnana etc.

(3) Cello's top plate generally fluctuated with the beats 3->2->3(->4)->3->2->3 . 

On the other hand the endpin kept 3-beat homogeneously.

42e. Vibration beat--D(148Hz)--COMPARISON--Top plate--

the endpin keeps 2-beat persistently

Comment:

Cello's top plate vibrates(/fluctuates) with beats 2->1->2->1->1 after a pizzicato, on the other hand the endpin keeps 2-beat persistently.

However both two components of cello sustained their vibration over 3 seconds in this measurement. The D note(148Hz) might be well matched to the top plate and also to the endpin on the floor or to their combination.

The vibration of the lower bouts of cello weaken by setup of the endpin and accelerated by placing on the floor.

Yellow areas come out around 2.0 second at 'without endpin', meanwhile around 1.5 second at 'with endpin'.

How endpin and floor affect the top-plate's vibrations?



Comment:

Top plate and the lower bouts seem to be interacted each other and acting naturally as an united instrument.

Top plate vibrates for long time and the second longest part is the endpin.


Comment:

The lower bouts seem to shorten their vibration time and might be acting as a fulcrum(てこの支点) when a cello is placed on the floor.
