#REDIRECT [[Instrument List]]
Status, (as don would say): [[Advanced Instrument Tree|AdvancedInstrumentTree]] is now implemented! Go ahead and discuss existing instruments and suggest new ones!

Discuss Instrument additions and instrument addition wishes here. Please use [http://musicbrainz.org/bugs trac] to add the request, (assign it to either luks or ZaphodBeeblebrox and use component "Style Issues: Instruments") when decided upon (see [http://bugs.musicbrainz.org/query?status=new&status=assigned&status=reopened&component=Style+Issues%3A+Instruments&order=priority here] for a list of open tickets).

A new instrument can be added only when it is used on at least 5 regular, proper releases (live or album). <br/> Please supply as much information about the instrument as possible, [[User:mo|mo]] will probably ask for more information about the instrument if none is given. The best way to get your pet instrument added is by doing some research, give a short concise explanation on what it is, and providing ample links.

Please also do a second search in the Instrument list to make sure it is not already there : )

**** Honestly, I highly doubt it. He's probably just playing it behind his back/head, reversed, on in some other strange way. Or perhaps it's a left-hand guitar. I don't know.

I don't know this instrument at all so I don't know if the 'double bass' aspect is default for this instrument or not. If it isn't, should we include it as a separate instrument? -- [[User:Prodoc|Prodoc]] 15:20, 08 March 2008 (UTC)
**** You provided the link to Wikipedia and still didn't read the article? Double bass would correspond to the contrabass tuning. Just use balalaika for now and record the tuning in the [[Sub Optimal Credits|SubOptimalCredits]]. Tunings will most likely be added as a separate attribute. -- [[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]] 00:27, 09 March 2008 (UTC)

*** Some tracks on [[Album:8f5e1348-16b2-4777-a2d6-5f75338289dc|The Complete Songs of Robert Burns, Volume 3]] credit a musician with "Box", which from the sound is a kind of accordion (see edits [[Edit:7546921|7546921]] & [[Edit:7547611|7547611]]). Since other tracks on the same releases credit that same musician with "accordion", it seems that "box" is intended to refer to a specific instrument rather than it simply being a generic name for an accordion. -- [[User:TimVanHolder|TimVanHolder]] 20:00, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
**** Looks like this may also be a [[WikiPedia:Sruti_box|Sruti Box]] (also [http://www.shrutibox.com/ http://www.shrutibox.com/]), and Indian harmonium-like instrument (see [[Edit:8704118|8704118]]). -- [[User:TimVanHolder|TimVanHolder]] 21:00, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
**** Actually, a box ''is'' most often used as a generic term for double (or single (or, in rare instances, triple)) rowed button accordions (which are, AFAIK, always diatonic). -- [[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]] 17:41, 05 May 2008 (UTC)

**** A "clàrsach" and an Irish harp are the same, the only difference is whether the instrument or player or tune is from Ireland or Scotland. Which, IMHO, isn't enough to warrant its own entry. (And [http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=R9AfTvBcV_4 I play one], so I should be as eager as anyone to have as much granularity as possible in this area!) I'd support renaming "Irish harp" to "Irish harp / Clàrsach" though. -- [[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]] 18:40, 05 May 2008 (UTC)

*** I'm a bit surprised that this isn't here already, it's not exactly a rare instrument. I came across one release it's used in - but I have no doubt that it's out there on various other releases as well. -- [[User:Kilu|Kilu]]
**** From what I can tell, it's just a regular (acoustic) guitar with pick-ups. Do you want "electric-acoustic" bouzoukis, banjos, harps, accordions, violins, guitar basses, double basses, ... etc. as well? -- -- [[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]] 10:42, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
***** I suppose you have a point there. I personally don't have an electric acoustic anything, so I don't know if the sound is any different from normal acoustic. I do think that it's sort of odd that it's specifically credited as such in the booklet though. [[User:Kilu|Kilu]]
***** Perhaps an "electric" option which could then be applied to any instrument in the list? -- [[Brian Schweitzer|BrianSchweitzer]] 13:40, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

*** In the process of adding performance credits to my favorite groups' releases, I found that there's no currently no entry for EWIs. I have a set of 6 albums which feature the instrument (5 of them listed above) that I am ready to add credits to. Wikipedia suggests there are also a number of well-known (in their genre) jazz performers, as well as albums and soundtracks, that make use of the instrument. More information about the EWI can be found on its wikipedia [[WikiPedia:EWI|page]]. -- KrytenAG 01:47, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

** ''Comments:'' See [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taragot Wikipedia page]. I ''think'' it's the descendant of the next instrument in this list (Tárogató); Wikipedia says that without the accents. On the other hand, the accents ''might'' be the Hungarian spelling (here's [http://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/T%C3%A1rogat%C3%B3 the Hungarian wiki page], it seems more informative but I can't read it.)
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">A look around the web would suggest that “taragot” is the generic internationalized (i.e., English) spelling, but that might be biased by my searches. Some more links: [http://www.11thmuse.com/taragot.html Page dedicated to the taragot]. [http://www.eliznik.org.uk/RomaniaMusic/taragot.htm Some more info].

* '''Viol / treble viol / viola da gamba / bass viol / violone / vihuela / viola da mano / Spanish vihuela / Mexican vihuela'''

Viol - (copying this section out of my original listing of the Viol in revision 198):
* [http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viol Viol] - for "early music" and period instruments classical recordings
** [http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viol treble viol]
** [http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viol viola da gamba] - A tenor viol, evolved from the vihuela de arco
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">According to [[WikiPedia:Viol|Wikipedia]], "viol" and "viola da gamba" are the same... ? -- [[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]] 08:45, 01 May 2008 (UTC)
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">Wikipedia uses the terms somewhat confusingly, using the historical term and the modern term interchangably. "Viol" is generic, and one can (anachranistically) refer to the "Viola da gamba" family (as their linked to Viola da Gamba Society does) - the term once was used for all types, with octive ranges prefixed. So in the 1700's, one might have played a bass viola da gamba. In modern terminology, however, though the term can still be used generically for the family, "Viol" is the much more commonly used generic term, with the particular octive types titled as listed here ("bass viol", "treble viol", etc), with a reference to "so and so: viola da gamba" specifically being intended to mean what that same 1700's player would have called a tenor viola da gamba. When I layed out this instrument list, from Viol down to Mexican vihuela, I tried to lay it out as the tree would branch out under modern terminology. (While the "Viol" at top could be "Viola da Gamba", having it twice, once as the specific and once as the anachronicstic generic seems like it'd be much more confusing.) -- [[Brian Schweitzer|BrianSchweitzer]] 09:12, 01 May 2008 (UTC)

*** Alexsander Hrenov is credited playing wooden spoons on [[Release:7381494e-5113-4ede-922e-d216cab3fa9a|Dark Ages]]. We do have spoons included in the instruments list but does the matterial of the instrument deserve to be included as separate entries? I don't know spoons as an instrument but if there's just a small selection of spoons in different materials availble we might as well include it. -- [[User:Prodoc|Prodoc]] 15:20, 08 March 2008 (UTC)
**** Well, wooden and metal (kitchen) spoons are by far the most common types of spoons, though bone/horn spoons are also out there. As a spoons player, I could probably give you a lengthier rant about the qualities of each type, but for the sake of this discussion, let me just say that there ''are'' different kinds of spoons, and the material ''does'' have an effect on the produced sound. :) -- [[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]] 00:03, 09 March 2008 (UTC)

==Discussion==

With regards to "generic" stuff, I just noticed there's no way for ARs that use the tree, like "arranged", to identify simply "arranged orchestral parts" or "arranged vocals", or similar arrangement roles. They're not instruments, but if we're going to reuse the tree for those types of ARs as well, perhaps those types of "super-generics" also ought to have a place in the revised tree? -- [[Brian Schweitzer|BrianSchweitzer]] 06:44, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

We have Greek baglama and Turkish baglama, but no generic "baglama" for where the specific baglama type is unspecified. -- [[Brian Schweitzer|BrianSchweitzer]] 02:52, 09 March 2008 (UTC)
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">Is this a point for discussion or a suggestion to have a generic "baglama" added to this list? If it's the former, what exactly do you want to discuss? If it's the latter, go and add it to the list of suggestions above! -- [[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]] 10:22, 09 March 2008 (UTC)
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">For all three, I put them under discussion, as they don't seem to really be "instruments" to be added, more a general observation - I caught three (four if you include 'electronic wind instruments'), but there's perhaps others, where we have specific types, but no abstracted type. It'd perhaps be useful to take a look through the list for any other such instances I've missed, where we jump right to the specific types, without also providing the unspecified generic as an option, to avoid people being forced into 'guessed credits'. -- [[Brian Schweitzer|BrianSchweitzer]] 11:46, 09 March 2008 (UTC)
</ul>
</ul>

Along the same lines as the baglama, we have three dulcimers scattered in the list (Appalachian, Hammered, and Đàn tam thập lục), but no generic "dulcimer" listing. -- [[Brian Schweitzer|BrianSchweitzer]] 03:14, 09 March 2008 (UTC)
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">Is this a point for discussion or a suggestion to have a generic "dulcimer" added to this list? If it's the former, precisely what do you want to discuss?

"Mbira (Mbira, (sansa, kalimba, luvale, karimba, marimbula, matape)) (7)" - I would suggest that this one is named such that it's unclear; the kalimba can be either the modern thumb piano, or the entire family, but the mbira is specifically the traditional thumb piano used within Zimbabwe. "Kalimba (Mbira, (sansa, kalimba, luvale, karimba, marimbula, matape)) (7)" would make much more sense. -- [[Brian Schweitzer|BrianSchweitzer]] 02:52, 09 March 2008 (UTC)

While we have lots of types of pipe, we have no generic "[[WikiPedia:Pipe_(instrument)|pipe]]". -- [[Brian Schweitzer|BrianSchweitzer]] 02:52, 09 March 2008 (UTC)
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">Is this a point for discussion or a suggestion to have a generic "pipe" added to this list?

Would be nice if the entry for "Jew's Harp" was changed into "Jew's Harp / Trump". Unless you know the instrument, it's easy to assume that "trump" is a kind of trumpet. -- [[User:TimVanHolder|TimVanHolder]] 21:00, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">According to [[WikiPedia:Trump|Wikipedia]], "trump" can mean either a Jew's harp or a trumpet (or a blow in a trumpet). -- [[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]] 08:26, 01 May 2008 (UTC)
</ul>

===Musicbox===

* [[WikiPedia:Musical_box|Music(al) box]] - only have one case so far: Steve Thorne's [[Release:5f1d8dfc-265e-4e3f-ba1f-42595548d306|EMO1]] - so perhaps we should wait for more occurrences. This is probably something for the "Other instruments" section. -- [[User:Shepard|Shepard]] 14:31, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
** I don't know about Music Boxes really, to me it seems like less of an instrument and more like "instrument, composition (melody), medium (e.g. vinyl) and medium-player all wrapped up in one thing". I am not sure here to be honest. ~[[User:mo|mo]]

===Synths===

Why shouldn't particular types of synth be added? They're frequently listed on CDs and some people care what type of synth was played. Why not make them subtypes of 'Synthesizer'. [[User:PaulSharpe|PaulSharpe]]
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">Because it's impossible to keep up with them all, especially considering the protracted process by which new instruments need to go through before they are added. I've said time and time again that this is all NUTS - what we need are a few (50 tops) instrument/role macro-categories, and then a free text field by which users can input qualifiers. Eg: "Synthesizer [[[Mini Moog|MiniMoog]]]". --[[User:Gecks|Gecks]]
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">Free text fields are not possible in the current [[Advanced Relationships|AdvancedRelationships]] implementation. (And also I think a mixture of a list and free text is counter productive, but well..) You guys are just too impatient. :) Let [[User:mo|mo]] finish his job of restructuring the tree and after that he will create a wiki page to make the process of adding instruments much faster. Noone will die inbetween. And it will prevent total chaos to do it structured and in this order. --[[User:Shepard|Shepard]]
</ul>
</ul>

The number of different synths produced numbers in the several hundreds. Roland alone has made well over 100 different synths and tone generators. Do you want to start listing all of those? That's a slipperly slope to be on. Besides, they are just models and brands. In the end the artist is still playing a synthesizer. If we start listing those then to be consistent we'd have to list the brand and model of all of the other instruments. Does it matter that Jaco Pastorius played a Fender Precision Bass on most of his albums or can we be content to know that he played electric bass guitar? Likewise, does it really matter that Lyle Mays played a Korg Triton and a Steinway Grand on the last Pat Metheny album or is knowing that he played synthesizer and piano enough? [[User:MattPerry|MattPerry]]

===Dancing===

* Dancing - Occasionally, I stumble upon releases and tracks which have someone credited as "dancer" or with "dancing"
** Stepdancing - I also see step dancing every now and then (actually, probably more often than simply dancing). --[[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]] 2007-04-17T07:52:33CEST (I will provide links to releases with these credits as soon as I get around making that [[Wiki Page|WikiPage]] I talked about yesterday in IRC.)
** maybe Tapdancing, which is apparently a subtype of [[WikiPedia:Step_dancing|stepdancing]] - on [[Release:507f5433-5bdf-4f9e-a1ce-a6dab959b8a6|Who Used to Dance]] (actually represented as "percussion instruments performed by Savion Glover"), and probably a lot more releases (Musicals' stuff).
*** [[Brian Schweitzer|BrianSchweitzer]] pointed out that Discogs lists "Tap Dancing" as an instrument. -- [[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]] 19:21, 06 May 2008 (UTC)

<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">I'm not really sure there is a point in crediting things that don't have a relation with the recorded sound (eg: "My mother made the cookies"), and possibly we may define this "instrument" only when it actually has a "part"? -- [[User:dmppanda|dmppanda]] 09:09, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">Well, all the dancing credits I thought of in my above proposal actually have a "part" in the sound picture. Step dance in particular is used in "Celtic" music for percussion, in line with bodhrán, bones, and spoons. -- [[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]] 13:02, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">krazykiwi says there's a band called 'Tilly and the Wall' who make a feature out of having a tap dancer instead of a drummer (both live and on recordings). -- [[User:mikemorr|mikemorr]] {{DateTime}}

Foolip's working on Chinese releases (have we ever before had someone working on them to need Chinese instruments?) and I'm working on a 170 CD set of classical on period instruments. Even if there's not yet 5 releases listed in here to justify adding each of these yet, shouldn't they still be listed? (For vocal percussion, if anyone can edit that table, I can provide links to at least 30 releases in the db for which it would be needed) -- [[Brian Schweitzer|BrianSchweitzer]] 15:35, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">Freso, if ou look at the revision that was reverted out there, at the time those were not. On the specific vocal percussion role, I even at the time specifically made mention of the fact that this wasn't perhaps the right place for it - but also mentioned that there is no page for that tree, nor did it seem to make sense to make an entirely new VocalAdditionDiscussion page for such a small tree with so few conceivable potential additions. -- [[Brian Schweitzer|BrianSchweitzer]] 16:56, 06 May 2008 (UTC)
<ul><li style="list-style-type:none">I know for a fact that "hardangerfele" has been in the tree for as long as I've been around MB, so unless you made the list before Summer 2006... no.

===Singular or Plural (parent) instruments===

Parent instruments are named with inconsistent singular and plural form at the moment (e.g. 'Horn', 'Valved brass instruments', 'Flute' and 'Drums'). Some of the parent intruments are instruments of them selfves (e.g. 'Horn'), some are just a group indication (e.g. 'Valved brass instruments'). Both types can, and should be allowed to, be used in AR's depending on how someone is credited. I think this should be done in a more consitent manner. [[Release:43077b5c-05bd-4d07-b938-3963101ab417|Away From Here]] is one example where one is credited arranging 'Horn'''s'''' instead of just 'Horn'. There is, however, no plural form of 'Horn' available while the group 'Violins' does have 'Violin' in singular form included.

In the most accurate situation we should do the same for every group indication as we do for 'Violins' and 'Violin' thus e.g. changing 'Horn' to 'Horns' and adding 'Horn' as a sub instrument. This might, however, result in a drastic increase of the instrument list (not that it isn't already way too big but stil ;-)). Another option would be to change at least all of the parent intruments to use the 'Horn(s)' form and thus removing the singular forms like 'Violin' from the list. The downside would be that the AR's won't be as accurate as can be. Of course, we could simply make everything singular or plural but somehow this doesn't really appeal to me ;-) -- [[User:Prodoc|Prodoc]] 14:43, 08 March 2008 (UTC)
