Abstract

Acoustic input impedance measurements are a useful tool for characterizing the behavior of a wind instrument. Methods for measuring acoustic input impedances include the two-microphone three-calibration (TMTC) technique (Gibiat and Laloë, 1990) and the multi-microphone method (Jang and Ih, 1998). We present and evaluate the design of a new impedance measurement head based on the multi-microphone method. We will discuss practical aspects such as impedance head calibration, measurement stimulus, and leak detection.
