Techniques For Retaining The Sound

By Catherine Olson


Banjos are one of the oldest instruments. They are five string musical instruments. It is a combination of metal and wood. One of the key metal elements is the tone ring that enhances the sound quality. The other part is the resonator for capturing the sound for a longer duration. A banjo resonator uses animal skin for retaining sound.

Anything that resounds or resonates has to be called as a Resonator. It could be a musical instrument or a scientific apparatus or else an electrical device. It naturally oscillates at some frequencies called resonant frequencies. It has greater amplitude than others. They are of various types like coaxial, dialectic, ceramic and crystal.

A resonator is basically adopted to produce louder sounds. People who want to make a sound louder and clearer which lasts for a long time uses resonators. This is a kind of membrane. In the past man used animal skin to make the covering. Membranes made of animal outer cover are stronger and durable. Nowadays synthetic membranes are also used.

Music is divine. Every living being is sensitive to music. Babies right from their mothers womb react to sounds of low pitch and music from the stage of a few weeks. Later on after birth they tend to respond to these sounds or music.

Guitars were the recent inventions in musical instruments. They have six strings instead of five. They were only thousand years old. These are products that does not use resonator. It is completely made of hollow wooden bark that used to provide high quality sound. The best part is it reduced the usage of animal skin.

Movies are pretty much recent inventions in entertainment sector. Earlier movies were black and white with no sound. Such pictures were known as silent movies. Since there were no voice these movies depend a lot on actors expressions. Enacting the feelings through artificial expression depicted the actual talent of the actor.

In film making the songs were recorded at a different place. Later when the movie is shot at some other location this song was used. The actors have to lip sync according to the song. The original singer never comes into the picture. This was known as playback singing. Even the dialogues were started getting recorded and then later used in movies.

There are many communities from various cultures who sing, play musical instruments and dance in exchange for money for survival. They are very poor class people who display their culture and rich heritage on roads. Usually such people are known as hippies. They keep on travelling from one place to another and continue performing road shows.

Human beings should conserve natural resources and protect plants, animals and the environment. The inventions that we are doing is great, however it should be environment friendly. We should take our thoughts in a positive direction and avoid inventing product which is causing mass destruction.
