MBOWED

the "Bowed" physical model (in package insts.stk)


MBOWED models a bowed-string, using waveguide filter techniques.

It was originally adapted from Perry Cook and Gary Scavone's STK, the Synthesis ToolKit for doing amazing physical model stuff.

Info from the original STK instrument source code:




p-fields:
/* MBOWED - the "Bowed" physical model instrument in
        Perry Cook/Gary Scavone's "stk" (synthesis tookkit).

   p0 = output start time
   p1 = duration
   p2 = amplitude multiplier
   p3 = frequency (Hz)
   p4 = vibrato freq low (Hz)
   p5 = vibrato freq high (Hz)
   p6 = vibrato depth (% of base frequency [decimal notation 0.1 == 10%])
   p7 = percent of signal to left output channel [optional, default is .5]

   Assumes function table 1 is breathPressure (amplitude) curve for the note.
   Or you can just call setline. If no setline or function table 1, uses
   flat curve.

   function table 2 = bow pressure tracking curve (0.0-1.0)
   function table 3 = bow position tracking curve (0.0-1.0)
   function table 4 = vibrato waveform
