How it's made

Source
a small latch letting go. Stage one is a dull catch click (the pawl lifting, ≈ 1.2 ms noise burst); stage two, 25–60 ms later, is a brighter release click as the spring-loaded part snaps free.
Body
the casing rings in two damped modes (≈ 2.4 kHz and ×2.3) on the first click and a higher pair (≈ 3.4 kHz and ×2.7) on the second; a short low thock (≈ 260 Hz) gives the first click weight.
Flick
the freed spring sings as a rising sine glide (≈ 700 → 2000 Hz in 90 ms, exponential) with a quiet octave partial, fading over ≈ 0.12 s; a 3 ms onset ramp keeps it click-free.
Tail
the open feel is an airy band of high-passed noise (above ≈ 5 kHz) opening as the flick rises, plus two light high modes (≈ 5.2 and 7.4 kHz) that ring ≈ 0.12 s and die before 0.3 s.
Variation
`rng` mistunes the modes and glide by ±3 % and jitters the click gap; `brightness`, `snap`, `lift` and `tail` set the click colour, gap, glide interval and air amount; presets pick distinct uses.
