Bowed String Model

Hello all

I'm currently trying to implement a waveguide model of a bowed string within Supercollider.
I've managed to replicate the delay lines and, to some extent, the scattering with Allpass filters.

I've been using a saw wave as the delay line's input for testing, but I now want to model the stick-slip motion.
Most other examples seem to use wavetables for the input, but I'm wondering if this can be done within supercollider.

Any help is appreciated,
Andy

Hi -

Do you mean you want to model the feedback between the string's
position/velocity and whether the bow sticks or slips? In other words,
the input could be something like a continuously-ascending ramp which
resets to zero when some condition on the output is met.

If so, you could use a Phasor as your source, and use LocalIn and
LocalOut to feed information back to the Phasor's reset trigger. (As
with all LocalIn/LocalOut you then have the issue that the feedback
loop introduces a delay corresponding to the control-block-size, so be
aware of that.)
