C2 Arched Top
フラットトップやアーチドトップなど、アコースティック楽器の振動板の表面形状は音の響き方に対して重要な役割を担っており、そ れぞれの楽器を特徴付けるキーポイントでもあります。 C1Aperture等の制作の中で独特の音質を持つ炭素繊維素材の可能性に触れ、それをさらに追求するために炭素繊維素材 を用いたアーチドトップ構造の楽器制作を試みました。 この表板は3次元に湾曲するシェル構造であり、フラットトップ構造に比べてより強度を高められることから、素材を限りなく薄くで きることも特徴の一つです。 人の身体が触れる部分には木材を用い、音の要となる表面の振動板にこの炭素繊維素材のアーチドトップを組み付ける構成 を採用しています。 これまで存在しなかったであろうこの楽器から発せられる音色が、プレイヤーとオーディエンスに新たなインスピレーションを与え ることを期待しています。

The surface shape of the diaphragm of acoustic instruments, such as flat tops and arched tops, plays a significant role in how the sound resonates and is also a key point that characterizes each instrument.
During the production of C1Aperture and other instruments, we were exposed to the potential of carbon fiber materials with a unique sound quality. In order to further pursue this potential, we made an attempt to produce instruments with an arched top structure made of carbon fiber materials.
This surface plate features a three-dimensionally curved shell structure, which is stronger than a flat top structure, making it possible to make the material as thin as possible.
Wood is used for the areas that come into contact with the human body, and the arched top made of carbon fiber material is used for the surface diaphragm, the key component of sound.
Our hope is that the tones created from this instrument, which would not have existed before, will provide new inspiration to the players and audiences.
