Angry German Kid (also known as Keyboard Crasher, Unreal Tournament Kid, AGK or PC Spielen) is a German viral web video released on 14 February 2006. The fictionalized persona in the viral video, played by German teenager Norman Kochanowski, tries to play Unreal Tournament on his PC, but faces problems with it, such as the game loading up slowly, which causes him to get enraged and shout, as ...
Pianoteq's modeled sounds are supplemented with sampled pedal noise, key release, and hammer noise. Patches for additional instruments are also available. Several of the historical instruments were created as part of the KIViR (Keyboard Instruments Virtual Restoration) project, which aims to create playable digital models of historical keyboard ...
Acoustic cryptanalysis is a type of side channel attack that exploits sounds emitted by computers or other devices.. Most of the modern acoustic cryptanalysis focuses on the sounds produced by computer keyboards and internal computer components, but historically it has also been applied to impact printers, and electromechanical deciphering machines.
The Railsback curve shows how a piano tuned to compensate for inharmonicity deviates from theoretically correct equal-tempered tuning. The Railsback curve, first measured in the 1930s by O.L. Railsback, a US college physics teacher, expresses the difference between inharmonicity-aware stretched piano tuning, and theoretically correct equal-tempered tuning in which the frequencies of successive ...
Thus a displacement sensing keyboard may be better at providing both organ and piano feel in a single keyboĞ°rd controller. Most digital pianos implement a displacement-sensitive keyboard, in order to simulate the sound-stopping length of the note after the key is released. On an acoustic piano, releasing a key after being partially depressed ...
Pressing a key on the keyboard makes the instrument produce sounds—either by mechanically striking a string or tine (acoustic and electric piano, clavichord), plucking a string (harpsichord), causing air to flow through a pipe organ, striking a bell , or activating an electronic circuit (synthesizer, digital piano, electronic keyboard).
In general, ergonomic keyboards are designed to keep the user's arms and wrists in a near-neutral position, which means the slant angle (the lateral rotation angle for the keys in each half relative to the axis of the home row in a conventional keyboard) is approximately 10 to 12.5°, the slope (the angle of the keytop surfaces starting from the front edge closer to the user towards the top of ...
The piano action mechanism [1] (also known as the key action mechanism [2] or simply the action) of a piano or other musical keyboard is the mechanical assembly which translates the depression of the keys into rapid motion of a hammer, which creates sound by striking the strings.
