Karplus-Strong synthesis

Indeed, several variations on the original Karplus-Strong algorithm have been developed in order to produce effects other than the plucked string. For example, simulations of drum-like timbres can be achieved by inverting the sign of a few output samples, according to a probability factor. [Pg.78]

Some software packages for sound synthesis provide a special unit for the implementation of the Karplus-Strong technique, which normally needs five parameters to function  [Pg.78]

The size of the recirculating lookup table is specified in Hertz and is usually set to be equal to the frequency value. The lookup table can be initialised by either a random sequence of samples or a user-defined function. As for the feedback method, the simple averaging method described above is the most commonly used. [Pg.78]

A few examples of Karplus-Strong synthesis in pcmusic are available in the folder Pluck, in the pcmusic materials on the CD-ROM. Check also for examples in Nyquist on the CD-ROM in the folder nyquist use a Web browser to open the file example-home.htm for more information. [Pg.78]


Figure 4.10 Karplus-Strong synthesis uses a time-varying lookup table to simulate the behaviour of a vibrating medium. As samples are output from the right side of the array, they are processed according to a certain algorithm and the results are fed back to the left side...

Similarly to Karplus-Strong synthesis, the cellular automata lookup table also employs a recirculating wavetable to simulate the behaviour of a vibratory medium. The main difference is that the new sample values of the delay line are computed here by means of cellular automata, rather than by the averaging method. [Pg.78]
