Hi all,

Does anyone know of a way to get something like a `ba.impulsify`, but
allowing me to use say, a single cycle of a bandlimited waveform, in order
to trigger a Karplus-Strong-like resonator?

For my ongoing "superclav" project. I want to experiment with a more
"deterministic" excitation source. Currently, it's a brief burst of noise
shaped by an envelope.
Especially in the lower register bass notes, it occasionally still suffers
from random metallic pings that emphasize harmonics other than the
fundamental in a way I'd like to control.
I figured this is due to using a combination of noise (which introduces
perhaps too much randomness, even when LP filtered???) plus a very short
envelope as an exciter like I'm now doing,
and my thought is: if the excitation could be deterministic _like_
`ba.impulsify` is, but, allow for a longer excitation window (such as a
single cycle bandlimited waveform),
I would have very nice spectral characteristics and variation under
experimental control. Given that so much of perceived quality of timbre in
a pluck has to do with the
first few milliseconds of the timbre's attack, this would be ideal!
