Özet
The present study was on the sound of a traditional instrumentQanun and investigated the effects of soundboards of different thicknesson tone characteristics. Changes in sound level were observed. Theacoustic envelopes contained three regions were drawn for all of pitches.The changes in the sound levels were studied on this graphic. FourierAnalysis was made on recordings. Frequency distribution curves werealso drawn. Fundamental and overtone level distributions were shownon these graphics. The levels of harmonics were compared tofundamental level on these graphics. The structures of upper partialtones were studied. Frequency ranges of the graphics were limited to 100-10000 Hz. The numeric values on the all of graphics were analysed; andthe differences between all overtones were noted. A typical sound levelcurve for the Qanun was shown. In 3.0 mm thickness, due to theirregular resonances resulting from the thin body, too many harmonicsand long decay periods were observed. In higher thicknesses, the Qanuncannot show its unique timbre due the dimness and scarcity ofharmonics. Because of the evaluation of graphics and numeric values, a3.5 mm thick soundboard was suggested as the most appropriatesoundboard. The findings obtained in the present study are valid for thestandard structure that is commonly used. However, these findings canbe guiding for qanuns of different structures.
