Hello!

Having trouble with a wooden thud sound (specifically the one in the zip). The thud of a metal pipe was easier, because the characteristic "ringing" is easy to reproduce with oscillators. But noisier sounds are harder to analyze since the bands overlap and it's hard to tell how wide they are- ie. how sharp the Q should be. Any tips for that?

@s.elliot.perez OK, I've improved on that last version, though still sounds different from the recording. If anyone's interested, let me know and I'll post it here.

keep the good vibes coming

@lacuna Are you high?

@s.elliot.perez I'd also be interested to see what you came up with, and as far as I can tell I'm not high.

I used Cook's FindModes ChucK script to get 20 frequencies and their relative amplitudes, played around with the Q and the result is definitely more wood-like, if not identical to the original recording. Since this patch is specifically for a pan flute colliding against walls, I also have the three [bp~]s on the right that provide pipe-specific resonances with randomized pitches. To test it, click the [1( at the bottom of the patch, then set velocity with the horizontal slider at the top before banging to the left of that.

Hey, was missing an abstraction from that zip, so reuploaded it.
