BiVib - Audio-Tactile Piano Sample Library

BiVib is an extensive piano sample library consisting of binaural sounds and keyboard vibration signals.Samples were acquired with high-quality audio and vibration measurement equipment on two Yamaha Disklavier pianos (one grand and one upright model) by means of computer-controlled playback of each key at ten different MIDI velocity values.Project files (instruments and multis) are provided for use with the software sampler Native Instruments Kontakt (version 5 and above, available for Windows and Mac OS).The nominal specifications of the equipment used in the acquisition chain are reported in a companion document, allowing researchers to calculate physical quantities (e.g. acoustic pressure, vibration acceleration) from the recordings.The library is especially suited for acoustic and vibration research on the piano, as well as for research on multimodal interaction with musical instruments.BiVib是一款大规模钢琴采样库，涵盖双耳声音（binaural sounds）与键盘振动信号（keyboard vibration signals）两类数据。 采样数据通过高品质音频及振动测量设备采集自两台雅马哈Disklavier钢琴（一台三角钢琴、一台立式钢琴），采集时通过计算机控制驱动每个琴键进行弹奏，并设置10种不同的MIDI力度值（MIDI velocity values）。 本数据集配套提供适用于音频采样器软件Native Instruments Kontakt（版本5及以上，兼容Windows与Mac OS操作系统）的工程文件，包含乐器预设与多音色工程配置。 采集链路中所用设备的标称技术参数已在配套文档中列明，研究人员可据此从录制数据中计算得到各类物理量，例如声压（acoustic pressure）与振动加速度（vibration acceleration）。 该采样库尤其适用于钢琴声学与振动相关研究，以及乐器多模态交互（multimodal interaction）相关研究。
