GENERATORS
Plucked!
Plucked! is an example of
a physical modelling synth, where mathematical formula are used to
simulate real sound producing objects, like a plucked string, for
example. Plucked implements a ‘Karplus-Strong’ plucked string
model. The curious are invited to search for Karplus-Strong
modelling on Google - however, be prepared for some Math :) |
Parameters
- Decay knob - Changes the decay time of the
plucked sound.
- Color knob - Changes the tone of the plucked
sound from dark (left) to bright (right).
- Normalize - Tries to make the decay the same
for all semitones. Otherwise higher notes have a shorter
decay.
- Gate - Stops the voices abruptly when
released. Otherwise the decay keeps going.
- Widen - Enriches the stereo panorama of the
sound.
Notes & Tips
- Pitch bends are not supported for this generator.
- The Piano Roll allows an offset
on the decay & color per voice. While slides can be used to
change the decay on the fly, the color works at trigger time only
(i.e. they don't change as the voice is running).
