Cryogenics is also used to treat many types of musical instruments. Because treated materials are denser, the surface area of an object is affected. Inside the instrument, the surface is smoother than an untreated instrument. This change in surface characteristics changes the quality of sound that the instrument can produce. In most cases, a crisper, clearer sound is acheived, especially amongst the brass section of instruments. The same type of effect can also be useful in stringed instruments by treating the strings themselves. There really is no end to the numerous ways cryogenics can assist, both at work and at play. |
