Acoustics of organ reed pipes
Eric Cox, Thomas D. Rossing · The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America · 2004
In most lingual organ pipes, the reed vibrates against a fixed shallot, and modulates the flow of air passing the shallot into the resonator. We have measured vibrations of plucked and blown reeds of lingual pipes with and without the resonators. We discuss the effects of the acoustic field on the reed vibration and especially the interaction between the reed and the tuned resonator.
