Ice cubes tumble into an empty glass with bright clinks, diminishing rattles and a dry glass ring.

How it's made

Source
1-5 ice cubes strike an empty glass. Rounded 0.35-0.7 ms attacks excite 2-4 ms band-limited pulses; a softer 9 ms burst supplies the solid ice knock beneath each clink.
Body
fixed glass modes at 1680, 2790, 4350, 6230 and 8310 Hz scale with vessel size. T60 falls from 0.55-0.95 s to 0.13-0.23 s; split modes beat by 2-4 Hz.
Ice
detuned 710, 1330 and 2180 Hz modes decay in 35-85 ms. There is no water or reverb.
Events
entries span 0-280 ms with 2-3 weaker rebounds per cube. Intervals shrink from about 100 to 45 ms as force and treble decrease; the same cup tuning persists across contacts.
Envelope
most collisions finish within 550 ms, followed by a glass-only tail. A smooth taper ends at 1.46 s with a silent margin to 1.55 s; every contact starts from zero.
Variation
seeded streams vary spacing, force, ice tuning and narrow stereo position. Presets cover one large cube, a small handful, a thin highball and a thick tumbler.
