Bound A boundary that
limits and reects
string movement.
This is much like
a ngerboard
that limits string
movement when
the string is
plucked very rmly.
The distance from
the boundary
center position to
the string’s resting
position
The slope
(steepness) of the
boundary. A value
of 0.0 places the
boundary parallel
to the string. Other
values will position
the boundary
closer to the string
on one end and
farther away on the
other.
The amount of
reection at the
boundary limits
Mass Used to model an
additional mass
attached to the
string. This can
lead to inharmonic
sounds, and very
interesting results,
if the position
of this mass is
modulated along
the string.
The mass size/
weight

Damp Localized damper,
which is useful for
soft damping
The intensity of the
damping
The damping

The width of the
damped string
