Various Approaches to Piano Modelling

[rrooyyccee]

I've uploaded a set of acoustic and electric piano models. I've tried two different approaches. First is a Karplus Strong based model of an acoustic grand piano (plexus piano). The model almost works but there is an artifact of the string model that I can't seem to get around: every other key creates a string buzz. But I think it does sound like a piano, or perhaps a recording of one. The other approach is one based on a posting on analogue heaven using pulsewidth modulation and keytracking. I could not get this to work on the G2, but had some luck using waveshaping. Related to this are some phase distortion electric pianos. I find the latter appraoch creates a more playable model that responds well to the keyboard. I hope these are useful for others out there and would be curious if improvements could be made.
