How it's made

Source
a powered ram compresses hot steel; a 2-9 ms filtered noise contact excites the anvil. A separate 20-65 ms crushed-scale burst loses high frequencies as contact pressure dissipates.
Body
foundation modes at 64-105 Hz and 147-242 Hz have 0.16-0.24 s T60; steel rings at 540-900 Hz times ratios 1, 1.47, 2.19, 3.32, 4.76, with 0.14-0.95 s T60. Close mode pairs beat slowly; upper modes decay faster. Anvil tuning stays fixed across blows.
Envelope
4-12 evenly spaced blows per four seconds, offset 120 ms from the loop boundary; contact attacks take 0.7-2 ms. A quieter guide clack and air stroke follow halfway through each cycle.
Variation
seeded contact texture and strength vary per blow, with a mild four-blow load accent. Mass lowers the foundation and anvil; hardness brightens contact; ring controls steel damping.
Presets
slow heavy forging, rapid light shaping, exposed ringing anvil and damped thick billet. Dry centered impacts; no baked-in workshop ambience or reverb.
