用物理模型模拟蝉鸣,实现音乐化实时控制。

Balancing physical modeling and musical requirements: Algorithmically simulating the calls of Hyalessa maculaticollis for real-time instrumental control

  • 基于蝉发声器官的物理建模,支持实时参数调节。
  • 可生成音高清晰、单次击打、音色丰富的拟声效果。
  • 适合声音设计与电子音乐创作,兼顾科学与艺术需求。

本文提出一种在 SuperCollider 中实现的算法,用于模拟 Hyalessa maculaticollis 蝉鸣以服务于音乐应用。通过输入参数可实时控制鸣叫相位、响度及感知音高。算法对鼓膜肌肉、鼓膜支架、肋骨、鼓膜板、腹腔气囊、鼓膜及翅盖等解剖结构进行物理建模,并引入去相干机制,假设其可解释鸣叫末段音色变化现象。整体表明,在生物声学建模用于音高表达时存在三方面权衡:需在多数设计阶段优先考虑音乐性而非完全真实物理;调整应使声效具备良好音高、单次击打、单一声源和丰富音色;而若物理共振模拟过于精确,反而可能因产生不同音源错觉导致音乐表现失败。附有音频示例,源码结构清晰且文档完整,便于后续开发蝉类生物声学的音乐应用。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

This paper presents an algorithm that simulates the calls of the Hyalessa maculaticollis cicada for musical use. Written in SuperCollider, its input parameters enable real-time control of the insect call phase, loudness, and perceived musical pitch. To this end, the anatomical mechanics of the tymbal muscles, tymbal apodeme, tymbal ribs, tymbal plate, abdominal air sac, tympana, and opercula are physically modeled. This also includes decoherence, following the hypothesis that it, in H. maculaticollis, might explain the change in timbre apparent during the final phase of a call sequence. Overall, the algorithm seems to illustrate three main points regarding the trade-offs encountered when modeling bioacoustics for tonal use: that it may be necessary to prioritize musical requirements over realistic physical modeling at many stages of design and implementation; that the resulting adjustments may revolve around having physical modeling perceptually yield sonic events that are well-pitched, single-attack, single-source, and timbrally expressive; that the pitch-adjusted simulation of resonating bodies may fail musically precisely when it succeeds physically, by inducing the perception of different sound sources for different pitches. Audio examples are included, and the source code is structured and documented so as to support the further development of cicada bioacoustics for musical use.
