Musical Signal Synthesis on Android
Mikulík, Jan ; Glembek, Ondřej (referee) ; Černocký, Jan (advisor)
The main task of this thesis is to design and implement new synthesizer on mobile platform under Android. The synthesizer generates three types of signals - sine, sawtooth and square. Two types of filters can be applied, low pass and high pass, and their cut-off frequency can be controlled. For the sound interpretation, an AudioTrack API was used. The synthesizer is controlled by zones, where one zone equals one tone. Zones can be selected by the user. For this synthesizer, a simple user interface was created.

Electronic Drum Control Module
Doležal, Karel ; Růžička, Richard (referee) ; Šimek, Václav (advisor)
This paper deals with development and construction of an electronic drum module. The purpose of the device is to capture signals from an electronic drumkit and to produce sound accordingly. Firstly, a protoype with no sound output is constructed to demonstrate an ability to capture input signals. Based on its function, parameters for a final device are determined. Then, electronic component selection and design of printed circuit boards is described with an aim to maximalize polyphony and minimize latency of the sound generator. After that, firmware with software mixing algorithm is designed. Lastly, testing and measurement of real device parameters is performed.

Establishment of database of musical instruments recordings
Lavický, Vojtěch ; Mácha, Tomáš (referee) ; Rášo, Ondřej (advisor)
In this Bachelor thesis you can find created database of musical instruments. Recordings are descripted by it's waveforms and sectrograms. It may serve for example for removing noise from signal. A general data of instruments are descripted here. Human earing and his perception of sound is discuss here. There are also included parameters of sound itself and theory of calculations. Frequency and dynamic range are written to every instrument in database. These are consequently range by its size. As a part of the thesis is program with graphical user interface. The program include all the recordings from database and is open to any other recordings.

Parametrizable Music Instrument for Mobile Platforms
Řezáč, Martin ; Mlích, Jozef (referee) ; Černocký, Jan (advisor)
The goal of this thesis is to create an application, which will be primarily used as three-axis parametrizable musical instrument, respectively a modifi ed MIDI controller, suitable for Android devices. Firstly, several products, which are available on the market, are reviewed and the reader is introduced to the problematics of audio synthesis, available technologies and typical Android device potential. The next chapter is dedicated to application design. Few designs are mentioned with focus on the chosen design concept. A part of this chapter is also a speci cation of the original concept, its implementation and advantages/disadvantages. The next part is dedicated to implementation and optiomalization of some of the critical points. Also the tests are evaluated including a survey about application usability. At the end, the whole work is concluded and the further development is outlined.

The piano as an accompanying musical instrument in the kindergarten.
ŠERI, Martina
The topic of my bachelor's thesis is using the piano in the accompanying play in the kindergarten. The theoretical part deals with the development of preschool children, musical development and the effect of music on the child. Furthermore the music activitis, which are implemented in the kindergarten in aspect of music education in the educational area of RVP PV. The practical part focuses on areas of musical activities, which teachers realize during playing on the piano. Which activities they use to play on the piano and how often the play on the piano with children during musical activities. The research is mixed, methods of watching in musical activities and interviews with teachers were used.

Work in children's folklore ensemble with preschool children
BOŽOVSKÁ, Kristýna
The bachelor work is divided into two parts - theoretical and practical. The aim of my work is pointing out possibility of using folklore during work with preschool children. In the theoretical part I attend to basic introduction the folklore of the South Bohemia and of the West Bohemia forcefully on "Blaťácký" folklore, its gatherers and possibilities in education process. In the practical part I describe work with preschool children within the frame of children's folklore group "Javoráček". Experiences from work in folklore group I apply in create integrated whole named "Malí muzikanti", which I try to realise with preschool children in kindergarten.

Cultish music and chant in Ancient Egypt
Špátová, Ingrid ; Janák, Jiří (advisor) ; Vymětalová Hrabáková, Eva (referee)
7 Summary Kultická hudba a zpěv ve starém Egyptě Cultish music and chant in Ancient Egypt Ingrid Špátová, DiS.

Temple musicians made offering and performances to deities about three or four times a day. Ancient musical instruments can be sorted to four groups: idiophones (musical instruments making...

Use of rhythmic stimulation in physiotherapy in patients with acquired brain damage
Norková, Hana ; Gerlichová, Markéta (advisor) ; Dědková, Miriama (referee)
Title: Use of rhythmic stimulation in physiotherapy in patients with acquired brain damage Abstract: The topic of the bachelor thesis is the use of rhythmic stimulation in physiotherapy in patients with acquired brain damage. The thesis consists of theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part contains 4 sections. The first section is entirely dedicated to the acquired brain damage. The second section describes the motor system and structures involved in its management. The third section summarizes information related to music therapy, neurological music therapy, rhythmical stimulation in neurological music therapy, music, rhythm and their influence on the human brain. In the last section, the Therapeutic Instrumental Music Performance is described in more details, the elements of which are further used in the practical part. The practical part is built on two case studies illustrating two female patients with an upper limb motor disorder caused by cerebral stroke. During the therapeutic sessions with the patients different elements of Therapeutic Instrumental Music Performance were applied. Both patients used four musical instruments, accompanied by a metronome and played each of the instruments with some specific movements. The synchronization of the pace with the movements of the upper limbs in...
