electro-acoustic instrument

Electroacoustic music is a style of musical composition and performance in which electronic devices manipulate the acoustic sounds of musical instruments. This musical technique, which began in the 1940s and 1950s, applies effects like reverb, delay, harmonizing, tape manipulation, and sonic deconstruction.

Acoustic instruments do not require any electricity, amplification or computer processor to produce a sound. Almost universally, acoustic instruments need human exertion (movement or breath) to be played; the noise that is made comes directly from some sort of force being applied to the instrument.

Electro-acoustic components can be divided many groups, consisting of radiator such as loudspeaker, headphone, and earphone; receiver such as microphone, hearing aids; and combination of radiator and receiver, like headset or group speakerphone for conference.

Whereas acoustic music has an organic quality that's directly tied to the musician's physical performance, electronic music is often produced in a studio with computer software.

Electroacoustic phenomena arise when ultrasound propagates through a fluid containing ions. The associated particle motion generates electric signals because ions have electric charge. This coupling between ultrasound and electric field is called electroacoustic phenomena.

The main purpose of an electro acoustic is to give you the option to increase volume, whether you need to match the rest of your band or you're playing solo shows.

With an electric instrument, you might still get those waves of vibrations, but they usually come from the amplifier or speaker, which just isn't the same experience. Acoustic tends to be more mellow and intimate in nature, while electric is bigger, and sometimes even takes on a “larger-than-life” aspect.

acoustics, the science concerned with the production, control, transmission, reception, and effects of sound. The term is derived from the Greek akoustos, meaning “heard.”

An electro acoustic guitar is just like your standard acoustic, but with one big difference: it houses electronics like an electric guitar. This means you can plug your instrument into an amp or PA system and crank the volume for gigging.

The neck size difference affects how the instruments are generally played: The acoustic guitar is great for open chords, a big resonant sound and rhythmic strumming patterns. On the other hand, the thin neck of the electric guitar makes it easier to play bar chords and reach higher notes while soloing.

Electric guitars tend to have lighter strings, a smaller body, and thinner necks, whereas acoustic guitars have a heavier body and a thicker neck to to support the tension of heavier strings. In terms of sound, the pickups and amplifier of an electric guitar enhance the learning process as they project the sound.
