Wikipedia Articles
- Tritare - A tritare is a guitar (invented in 2003 by Samuel Gaudet and Claude Gauthier of the University of Moncton) of a family of stringed instruments which use Y-shaped strings, instead of the usual string-shaped strings; Y-shaped strings can produce sounds which are harmonic integer multiples, but also nonharmonic sounds more akin to those produced by percussion instruments. The Y-strings create, when tuned correctly, Chladni-patterns.
- Strings (tennis) - Strings are the part of a tennis racquet which make contact with the ball. The strings form a woven network inside the hoop of the racquet frame.
- Barre chord - Barre chords (also known as Bar chords) are a type of guitar chord where one or more fingers are used to press down multiple strings across the guitar fingerboard (like a bar pressing down the strings). Barring the strings enables the guitarist to play a chord not restricted by the tones of the guitar's open strings.
- Strings (Unix) - In computer software, strings is a program in Unix-like operating systems that prints the strings found in an executable.
- Sympathetic string - Sympathetic strings or resonant strings are auxiliary strings found on many Indian musical instruments, as well as some Western Renaissance-era instruments. They are typically not played directly by the performer (except occasionally as an effect) but instead resonate along with the main strings played on an instrument.
