damping amount, and add some noise. The damping type can be selected as
well.
The exciter of the string will be the Audio input. You also have input controls for
frequency modulation and damping modulation.
The output is the processed audio.
5.7.3.10 The Spring-Mass module
The Spring-Mass module is another physical modeling tool that will emulate an
array of springs and weights. The Audio input will resonate when connected to
this module.
You can define the input and output gains, the stiffness of the springs, the mass
of the weights and the damping amount. A non-linear parameter will make your
signal sound more unconventional by bringing non-linearity to the effect.
The input connections are Audio In, Amplitude Modulation, Mass modulation,
Stiffness modulation and Damping modulation.
The output is the processed audio.
5.7.3.11 The Envelope module
The Envelope in Spark is a multi stage envelope. To make the interface clearer,
only essential parameters are displayed on the module itself: Attack, Decay and
Release. Other parameters are accessible using the Macro knob assignations.
See 5.7.2 for an explanation on how to do that.
Here is the full list of parameters contained in the envelope, taken from the
Macro knob assignation drop down:
