Karplus-Strong String Synthesis

in #music8 years ago


I've been working on a new series of modular synth patch videos breaking down the elements of a larger complex patch.

Element 01:

Karplus–Strong string synthesis is a method of physical modelling synthesis that loops a short waveform through a filtered delay line to simulate the sound of a hammered or plucked string or some types of percussion.

Element 02 of this patch coming in a few days with examples of how these elements work together to create a more complex piece.
