Sensor Augmented Bass Clarinet (SABRe) bass clarinet showing with VIP Mattias Mueller
The Sensor Augmented Bass Clarinet (SABRe) is a bass clarinet, which is playable in a conventional manner and is equipped with various sensors, with which a computer can be controlled. The original qualities of the instrument are retained, but by connecting it to your computer, a wide field of new applications and application areas open up. Through SABRe - for the first time in history - a musical instrument is made available to the world of art that creates a direct link between acoustic music and the digital world. The musician on stage can directly control this interface and thus put the electronic music spontaneously in a musical context. The development of this tool was made possible through a research project of the Institute for Computer Music and Sound Technology (ICST) of the Zurich University of the Arts, financed by the Swiss National Science Foundation
