Note transitions in Physical Models of a Wind Instrument

Axel Nackaerts, Bart De Moor, Rudy Lauwereins · 2000

Abstract: In simulating the playing of a musical note sequence with a physical model, not only the steady state tones but also the transition between the tones have to be modeled. This paper gives an overview of six different techniques for implementing note transitions, applied to a physical model of a wind instrument. Two specific solutions are further analyzed and compared. It is found that the parallel crossfading technique has a better cost/performance than serial crossfading.
