Abstract
The tritare is a new stringed musical instrument comprised of six networks of strings instead of six single strings. Each of the networks is called 3-string. We analyze the timbre of the tritare by studying the vibrations of the 3-strings. We show that for a real 3-string, i.e. a physical model rather than a theoretical model, the frequency spectrum is composed of only non-harmonic frequencies which leads to a very unique tone color.
