Hi

I want to create a signal thats similar to a reverberant knocking or impact sound, basically decaying white noise, but with a more compact onset similar to a minimum phase signal
and spectrally completely flat.

I am aware thats a contradiction.

Both, minimum phase impulse and fading random phase white noise are unsatisfactory.
The minimum phase impulse does not sound reverberant.

The random phase noise isn't strictly flat anymore when you window it with an exponentially decaying envelope
and also lacks a knocking impression.

I am also aware that a knocking impression comes from formants and pronounced modes related to shapes and material and not flat, which is another contradiction..

I am not sure what the signal or phase alignment is I am looking for.

Also it's not a chirp cause a chirp sounds like a chirp.

What happens in a knock/impact besides pronounced modes or formants?
Somehow the phases are aligned it seems, similar to minimum phase but then its
also random and reverberant.


Any ideas?
