A new instrument will be added only when it is used on at least 5 releases.

If the instrument you want added is not listed below, please add it. If the instrument is already listed, please add the applicable release(s) to that listing. In either case, please supply as much information about the instrument as possible. Please also search the [http://musicbrainz.org/relationship-attributes/instruments Instrument list] to make sure it is not already there under a different name.

When a proposed instrument has been added on the server, its info will be moved to the [[Instrument_Tree/Recently_Added|Recently Added page]].

*** Adam Levy is credited playing backwards electric guitars on [[Release:280704d8-b54c-4668-b640-1c1c9469a4ed|Not Too Late]]. Is this really a separate instrument? :-S -- [[User:Prodoc|Prodoc]] 15:20, 08 March 2008 (UTC)
**** 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. But I doubt it warrants an instrument listing on its own. -- [[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]] 00:27, 09 March 2008 (UTC)
***** You might want to read [http://www.nicolascollins.com/texts/BackwardsElectricGuitar.pdf this]. It's a pretty interesting contraption (and yes, it ''is'' a separate and unique instrument). -- [[User:HibiscusKazeneko|HibiscusKazeneko]] ([[User talk:HibiscusKazeneko|talk]]) 20:40, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

*** Vitaly Hrenov is credited playing Balalaika double bass on [[Release:7381494e-5113-4ede-922e-d216cab3fa9a|Dark Ages]]. 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]]. Tunings will most likely be added as a separate attribute. -- [[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]] 00:27, 09 March 2008 (UTC)

**** In Discogs Loops are credited 3223 times in release level and 2769 in track level [[User:Jokipii|Jokipii]] 21 June 2012
*** This is a tricky case. I've seen some pedal device being used to start and stop recording a loop while playing an instrument and then later repeating it (or repeating several loops at once). This should be an instrument in the electronic instruments family. But the Wikipedia article also mentions samplers being used for that (and we already have sampler in the tree) or that you can just digitally repeat samples. That latter case is not an instrument being used, really. And how can you tell which of those an artist really did? Credits like "samples" and "sound effects"/"fx" are similar. --[[User:Shepard|Shepard]] 18:43, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

***** Extremely. In case you haven't noticed, the two consoles were structurally completely different in many ways (most of which are irrelevant right now), but the Famicom had two pins on its edge connector that allowed game cartridges to expand the onboard sound capabilities of the console. One way this was utilized was through a built-in microphone in the second controller that would play back players' voices through the connected TV set. --[[User:HibiscusKazeneko|HibiscusKazeneko]] ([[User talk:HibiscusKazeneko|talk]]) 00:01, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

=== Nyabinghi Drums (Funde, Thunder, Repeater/Keteh) ===
** ''AKA:'' Rastafarian/jamaican drums
** [[Wikipedia:Nyabinghi_drums|Wikipedia]]
** ''Links:'' [http://www.ilanddrums.com/History.html|Iland drums]
** ''Description:'' played at a groundation ceremony in rasta culture. Nyabinghi music is played in 4/4 time on three drums:
::: Thunder: It is a double-headed bass drum, played with a mallet. The strokes are an open tone on 1 and a dampened stroke on 3. Occasionally, the thunder player will syncopate the rhythm.
::: Funde: The funde is the middle drum. It maintains the dominant heartbeat rhythm as the funde player makes steady, dampened strokes on 1 and 3.
::: Repeater/Keteh: The repeater or keteh, is the smallest and highest pitched drum. The drummer tends to play around 2 and 4 , with a syncopated feel. It is seen as the carrier of spirit and fire of the music.
:: Maybe these are two specific, but noting here in case they are credited this way on other releases. These are roughly equivalent to other standard percussion instruments like "bass drum", congas, bongos etc.

=== Organo di Legno ===
** ''AKA:'' Wooden Pipe Organ
** ''Description:'' A small chamber organ with wooden pipes which was well known in the Renaissance, but of which there appear to be no other surviving examples except for one made by Lorenzo da Pavia in Venice in 1494 that is now kept in the Museo Correr, Venice, Italy. Such instruments were prized for their sweet sound, described as "soave". Lorenzo's organ was pitched at a' = 455 Hz (± 4 Hz), one of the fairly high Venetian instrumental pitches. The compass is F,G-f³ (i.e. no F#), which retains the possibility of using the upper part of the range for repeating melodies at the octave.

=== Post horn ===
** ''AKA:'' coach horn, posthorn, post-horn
** [[WikiPedia:Post horn|Wikipedia]]
** ''Description:'' The post horn is a valveless cylindrical brass or copper instrument with cupped mouthpiece, used to signal the arrival or departure of a post rider or mail coach. It was used especially by postilions of the 18th and 19th centuries.<br>Mozart, Mahler, and others incorporated the instrument into their orchestras for certain pieces. On such occasions, the orchestra's horn player usually plays the instrument. One example of post horn use in modern classical music is the famous off-stage solo in Mahler's Third Symphony. Due to the scarcity of this instrument, however, music written for it is usually played on a trumpet or flugelhorn.

*** 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)

==Failed, and why==

===Indian Strings===
* Indian Strings ''NOTE: will not be added as it is too generic'' - what should we use when it's listed on a CD as an instrument then? -- Then try to find out exactly what kind of Indian stringed instrument it is. See: [http://chandrakantha.com/articles/indian_music/instruments.html http://chandrakantha.com/articles/indian_music/instruments.html]
===Tabla===
* [[WikiPedia:Tabla|Tabla]] ''already here, see Goblet Drum''
===Guitar synthesizer===
* [[WikiPedia:Guitar_synthesizer|Guitar synthesizer]] This shouldn't be added either. Just because you added a MIDI pickup to your guitar it doesn't change the fact that you're still playing a guitar.
:* I dispute this simplistic rejection, personally, and think it should be revisited. There are already many "specialized" versions of instruments listed on the current instrument tree, so this as a specialized electric guitar makes sense to me. There are also specialised Guitar Synth players; and all-in-one guitars that can be purchased. From Wikipedia "While the term "MIDI guitar" is often used as a synonym for the field of guitar/synthesis or for a guitar/synthesizer, MIDI is not always used. While most synthesizers use a keyboard interface to allow the performer to play the instrument, because synthesizers generate sounds electronically, a range of input devices can actuate them.[1] A guitar/synthesizer provides an interface which is familiar to a guitarist, allowing the guitarist to play synthesized sounds through the guitar. This diminishes the need for the guitarist to learn to play a keyboard, and allows for musical effects which are natural for a guitar but more difficult or impossible to produce using a keyboard." The fact that you can't achieve the same sound from a traditional synth keyboard or a regular electric guitar makes this distinct from both a "synth" and a "guitar". IMO, an instrument credit should represent both the input mechanism AND the sound that is produced. I mean, we even have both lap steel guitar and electric guitar... Neither "electric guitar" nor "synthesizier" accurately represent the play style and sound here. --[[User:Voiceinsideyou|Voiceinsideyou]] 06:04, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
::* I'd agree with Voiceinsideyou. If the saxophone synthesizer (aka EWI / Electronic Wind Instrument) could be added - and I think it was correct that we did add it - then I don't see any reason why a string instrument equivalent should be barred. If it is simply the addition of a MIDI pickup, that's one thing, but as Voice suggests, that's not the entirety of what might be meant by 'guitar syth'. [[User:BrianFreud|BrianFreud]] 01:35, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

===Yamaha DX7===

===Kalimba===
* [[WikiPedia:Kalimba|Kalimba]]: [[Artist:f4eb8346-052d-4a5c-8393-cba3aeadb4d9|Steve Hackett]] played Kalimba on [[Release:4262dca2-df09-41a1-ba0e-050957e56f7e|Wind & Wuthering]]. - jongetje
: It's already in the list - look under "mbira". -- [[Brian Schweitzer|BrianSchweitzer]] 12:27, 09 March 2008 (UTC)

=== Clàrsach ===
* 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)

*** Used by [[Artist:e54eaf23-781d-48ef-a8cd-161574b552e6|Jørgen Dickmeiss]] on [[Release:ef619505-7f4e-443b-8de5-e51817f519b9|Aldrig får jeg fred]]. Should be a child of "Reed Organ" per [[Wikipedia|WikiPedia]]. (Unless it's actually exactly the same as a harmonium... ? I couldn't quite determine.) -- [[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]] 07:41, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

*** I haven't added this because Wikipedia (and various other sites I found) say it's just another name for a reed organ. --[[User:Nikki|Nikki]] 17:15, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
