How it's made
- Source
- a small wooden-and-plastic marker peg tapped into a socket as a step advances. Contact is a very soft, low-passed noise tick of about 2 ms; the tonal part is a stiff little bar pushed slightly sharp by the tap.
- Body
- one dominant mode (700–1800 Hz) whose pitch relaxes upward by about 5 % in the first 35 ms, as the contact stiffness settles, plus a quiet stretched partial near 2.76x and a faint octave-below thump.
- Envelope
- attack 1 ms to avoid a click; the main mode falls 60 dB in about 90 ms, the partial in half of that, so the spectrum darkens as it decays; a short final fade guarantees a clean tail inside 0.15 s.
- Variation
- `rng` mistunes the mode by up to ±1.5 %; `pitch` sets the step marker's note, `brightness` the partial and contact level, `rise` the size of the upward glide, `decay` the ring time.
| Parameter | Range | Default | Unit | Controls |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| pitch | 700 – 1800 | 1100 | Hz | Pitch |
| brightness | 0 – 1 | 0.4 | — | Brightness |
| rise | 0 – 1 | 0.5 | — | Size of the upward pitch glide |
| decay | 0.04 – 0.12 | 0.07 | s | Time for the main tone to fade 60 dB |
| seed | int | 1 | — | Variation, reproducible |
The source is reviewed and run by SonicBricks; agents fetch it as a recipe with sb. It is not published on this page.
