Detailed Description

Simple modal synthesis voice with a mallet exciter: click -> LPF -> resonator.

Author

Ben Sergentanis

Date

Jan 2021 The click can be replaced by continuous white noise.

Ported from pichenettes/eurorack/plaits/dsp/physical_modelling/modal_voice.h
and pichenettes/eurorack/plaits/dsp/physical_modelling/modal_voice.cc
to an independent module.
Original code written by Emilie Gillet in 2016.

Member Function Documentation

GetAux()

float ModalVoice::GetAux

(

)

Get the raw excitation signal. Must call Process() first.

Init()

void ModalVoice::Init

(

float

sample_rate

)

Initialize the module

Parameters

sample_rate

Audio engine sample rate

Process()

float ModalVoice::Process

(

bool

trigger = false

)

Get the next sample

Parameters

trigger

Strike the resonator. Defaults to false.

SetAccent()

void ModalVoice::SetAccent

(

float

accent

)

Hit the resonator a bit harder.

Parameters

accent

Works 0-1.

SetBrightness()

void ModalVoice::SetBrightness

(

float

brightness

)

Set the brighness of the resonator, and the noise density.

Parameters

brightness

Works best 0-1

SetDamping()

void ModalVoice::SetDamping

(

float

damping

)

How long the resonant body takes to decay.

Parameters

damping

Works best 0-1

SetFreq()

void ModalVoice::SetFreq

(

float

freq

)

Set the resonator root frequency.

Parameters

freq	Frequency in Hz.

SetStructure()

void ModalVoice::SetStructure

(

float

structure

)

Changes the general charater of the resonator (stiffness, brightness)

Parameters

structure

Works best from 0-1

SetSustain()

void ModalVoice::SetSustain

(

bool

sustain

)

Continually excite the resonator with noise.

Parameters

sustain

True turns on the noise.

Trig()

void ModalVoice::Trig

(

)

Strike the resonator.
