How it's made
- Source
- a spring-loaded steel pawl dropping into a notch of a detented knob. Two contacts: a faint 0.5 ms release tick as the pawl leaves the previous notch, then the main snap 6–14 ms later as it seats.
- Body
- the pawl and notch ring in two stiff, damped steel modes (3.2–6 kHz, ratio ≈ 1.9); the knob cap adds a short plastic knock around 700–1400 Hz that gives the click weight without any sub-bass.
- Envelope
- attacks under 0.3 ms; the metal modes fade 60 dB in 10–30 ms, the cap knock in under 15 ms; the whole click is over by about 0.07 s and dry.
- Variation
- `rng` mistunes the modes by ±2.5 % and varies contact level slightly, so repeated clicks differ subtly; "tightness" sets the pawl gap, "size" the metal pitch, "body" the cap knock.
