🎸 Music Innovation Lab: Stiff-String Synthesis (2D)
2D canvas model of a plucked or hammered stiff string with live mode spectrum and waveform.
⚙ Under the hood
Interactive 2D model of a vibrating stiff string: drag the string to pluck or hammer it, and watch the mode spectrum, inharmonic partials and pickup waveform change with stiffness, damping and strike position. Optional additive-synthesis sound lets you hear conventional and genre-bending timbres.
