Thanks very much for that extremely concise explanation, Kas.<br> Fortunately, C++ doesn't scare me. I'm a black-belt when it comes to<br> rendering visual phenomena, but a lowly white-belt-wannabe with audio,<br>
so I'm not at all surprised that noise lies at the heart of natural<br> audio synthesis, since it is so ubiquitous in visual synthesis.</blockquote><div><br>Sure. I think it's actually the same "noise" at times. If you brush a large cymbal the resulting sound is largely a function of the un-even surface... but so is the typical way a cymbal has of scattering the light.<br>
