Five guitar dataset

<p>This dataset contains 30 guitar performances of 6 different guitar songs (5 recordings/song, each of the 5 recordings with a different guitar) recorded simultaneously from 3 different setups (DI, mobile mic, and computer microphone). In total there are 90 recordings.</p> <p>The songs recorded are:</p> <ul> <li>Lily Was Here (Lily)</li> <li>Mountain At My Gates (Mountain)</li> <li>Where Did You Sleep Last Night (Where)</li> <li>20th Century Boy (Century)</li> <li>Runaway Train (Train)</li> <li>Hole In My Shoe (Hole)</li> </ul> <p>The guitars used are:</p> <ul> <li>Fender Player Telecaster3 (Telecaster)</li> <li>Ibanez ART 120 with EMG pickups (Ibanez)</li> <li>Epiphone Joe Pass Emperor-II PRO5 (Epiphone)</li> <li>Larriv&eacute;e OM-406 (Larrivee)</li> <li>Eastman E1OM 7 (Eastman)</li> </ul> <p>The files are named according to the following pattern:</p> <p><em>SongName_GuitarUsed_Tempo_RecordingSetUp.wav</em></p> <p>How the dataset was made:</p> <p>The setup used a Yamaha Audio Gram 6 audio interface and Reaper9 to record guitar from direct input (DI), a Huawei P30 lite model MAR-LX1A to record guitar from a mobile, and a DELL Inspiron 13 5000 to record guitar from a computer. To record acoustic guitar in DI, I used a Fishman Neo D Single Coin on Larriv&eacute;e and Seymour Duncan Seth love on the Eastman connected to a NAP-5 Stageman Floor acoustic preamp going then to the audio interface. The computer and mobile were positioned approximately 3.8 cm from the player position (measured from the twelve fret of the guitars). The electric guitars were plugged into a DV Mark Little Jazz guitar amp which has a DI output, that was connected to the audio interface.&nbsp;The amp was located at a distance of 114.5 cm from the mobile and the computer.</p>

Acoustic Guitar Timbre Thematic Analysis

<p>A perceptual study was conducted to investigate listener perceptions of acoustic guitar timbre, encompassing descriptive and preference analysis, and the impact of guitar playing style on perceived timbre similarity and preference.</p> <p>The listening test was based on recordings of ten different steel-string acoustic guitars at various price points, sourced from the online music retailer Thomann (https://www.thomann.de/). For each guitar, recordings of three different songs were used, each with a different playing style: picking (mainly individual notes played with a combination of fingers and pick), strumming (mainly chords played with a pick), and fingerstyle (strings plucked with fingers rather than a pick).</p> <p>The study was completed by 27 participants (8 female, 19 male, mean age: 27) of 14 different nationalities. Participants had an advanced musical proficiency (Goldsmiths Musical Sophistication Index General Sophistication score of 97.85) and 11 of them played guitar as their primary instrument. Participants listened to each guitar in each of the three playing styles and were asked to describe the instrument's timbre, what they liked and what they disliked.</p> <p>We conducted a thematic analysis of the participant answers to the three questions (timbre description, timbre like, timbre dislike) for the ten guitars using a combination of deductive and inductive approaches. This dataset provides the analysis codebook, theme and code statistics.</p> <p>Details about the thematic analysis and the study can be found in the accompanying publication currently under revision (the reference will be added in due course).</p>

1964 flamenca negra guitar from Faustino Conde - documentation and reverse engineered construction plans

<p>This data set documents a specific guitar made by Faustino Conde in Madrid in 1964.<br>(Comment: Felipe Conde identified the handwriting of Mariano Conde in the "Conde" signature on the label inside, the signature of his father. This does not necessarily mean that the guitar was built by Mariano, since experts believe, that it was the brother Faustino who built these kind of special guitars, as it has also been the case for the flamenca negra guitars).</p> <p>The guitar is a so-called flamenca negra, a flamenco guitar with rosewood used for rib and back plate.<br>(Errata: the guitar was sold as a flamenca negra, and experts in Granada also believed it is a flamenca negra. However, Felipe Conde now inspected the guitar and states that the instrument has been built as a classical guitar with only some changes in the setup that might lead to other conclusions. It is not clear whether this setup is original from Conde or whether the guitar has been changed in an aftermath.)</p> <p>The guitar has the exceptional character of showing four main resonances between the Helmholtz resonance (A0) and the first air mode (A1), while other guitars usually have one or two resonances in the same range.<br>This is observable across a wider range of old and contemporary guitars, documented in an archive.<br>Mores, R. 2021a. &lsquo;Archive for the acoustical documentation of classical Spanish guitars, flamenco guitars and romantic guitars from private and public collections &ndash; bridge mobility&rsquo;. <em>Zenodo</em>,<br><a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4604577" target="_blank" rel="noopener">doi: 10.5281/zenodo.4604577</a>.<br>This observation triggered a research project to understand this.</p> <p>The resulting analytical model reveals the delicate tuning of related parameters in the construction, published in the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, JASA.&nbsp;<br>Mores, R. 2021. &lsquo;Sound tuning in asymmetrically braced guitars&rsquo;.&nbsp;<em>J.

The model matches with findings not only of this Conde guitar but explains tuning issues in general. There should be a translation into Spanish in due time.</p> <p>A brief talk (English) explains the main issues and demonstrates the congruence between the analysis and an mechanical model, build for demonstration purposes.<br>Mores, R. 2020a. &lsquo;Tuning signature modes in guitars - a lesson by Faustino Conde&rsquo;. <em>Zenodo</em>,&nbsp;<br><a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4624826" target="_blank" rel="noopener">doi: 10.5281/zenodo.4624826</a>.</p> <p>Supporting material (coded in MATLAB) allows researchers and guitar makers to explore the issue.<br>Mores, R. 2020. &lsquo;Tuning asymmetrically braced guitars - analytical models and MATLAB code&rsquo;,&nbsp;<em>Zenodo</em>, <br><a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4010596" target="_blank" rel="noopener">doi: 10.5281/zenodo.4010596</a>.</p> <p>This publication documents the construction plans of the Faustino Conde guitar.<br>Guitar makers asked for these plans to understand the principles of parameter tuning based on the construction. The documentation comprises:<br>1. construction plans (high resolution)<br>2. photos of the total instrument<br>3. photos of details inside&nbsp;</p> <p>***</p> <p>Comments on the guitar for those who consider to build this guitar model.<br>1. The guitar is original. Also the top and the mechanics. Experts in Granada, while inspecting the varnish,&nbsp; believed that the top plate might have been modified. However, Felipe Conde (*1959) states that the guitar is original. This also includes the fretboard. The fretboard height is declining towards the body and this caused questions by Granadian guitar makers. However, in the workshop of the Conde family several inspected guitars from the 50s through the 70s revealed a likewise decline of the height.<br>2. Felipe Conde inspected the guitar. He believes that the guitar is an experimental guitar and that it has been built as a customized guitar for a highly professional musician. But there are no records on this.<br>3. The setup of the guitar has been modified. The height of the bridge is lowered where the bone sits. This can be inspected in the construction plan. It is not known whether this was done by Conde himself or by someone else in an aftermath. Experts in Granada but also members of the Conde family state that the present setup is perfect.</p>

IDMT-SMT-Guitar Dataset

<p>The IDMT-SMT-GUITAR database is a large database for automatic guitar transcription. Seven different guitars in standard tuning were used with varying pick-up settings and different string measures to ensure a sufficient diversification in the field of electric and acoustic guitars. The recording setup consisted of appropriate audio interfaces, which were directly connected to the guitar output or in one case to a condenser microphone. The recordings are provided in one channel RIFF WAVE format with 44100 Hz sample rate.<br> <br> The dataset consists of four subsets. The first contains all introduced playing techniques (plucking styles: finger-style, muted, picked; expression styles: normal, bending, slide, vibrato, harmonics, dead-notes) and is provided with a bit depth of 24 Bit. It has been recorded using three different guitars and consists of about 4700 note events with monophonic and polyphonic structure. As a particularity the recorded files contain realistic guitar licks ranging from monophonic to polyphonic instrument tracks.</p> <p>The second subset of data consists of 400 monophonic and polyphonic note events each played with two different guitars. No expression styles were applied here and each note event was recorded and stored in a separate file with a bit depth of 16 Bit. The parameter annotations for the first and second subset are stored in XML format.</p> <p>The third subset is made up of five short monophonic and polyphonic guitar recordings. All five pieces have been recorded with the same instrument and no special expression styles were applied. The files are stored with a bit depth of 16 Bit and each file is accompanied by a parameter annotation in XML format.</p> <p>Additionally, a fourth subset is included, which was created for evaluation purposes in the context of chord recognition and rhythm style estimation tasks. This set contains recordings of 64 short musical pieces grouped by genre. Each piece has been recorded at two different tempi with three different guitars and is provided with a bit depth of 16 Bit. Annotations regarding onset positions, chords, rhythmic pattern length, and texture (monophony/polyphony) are included in various file formats.</p>
