Topic: Physical modelling drums?
I'm a Pianoteq user since V3 and absolutely love and appreciate the great work!
I'm also a big fan of physical modelling since it gives you a great deal of flexibility, adjustability and adds that extra bit of liveliness to the sound compared to sampling instruments.
Knowing that Pianoteq is modelling the piano and other percussive instruments in such a realistic way, I was wondering how far off it would be to model a drum set.
I've been looking out for a physical model of a drum kit since I got in touch with physical modelling about 10 years ago.
I'm a bit frustrated with how limited sampled drum plugins are in terms of rooms/mic positioning and tuning.
It would be fantastic to build and customise a virtual drum kit in a plugin! And there surely would be a great market for it.
I'm aware of some other companies that built plugins with physical modelling drum sounds.
But so far it all seems to be more on a experimental side without the intention to model a typical drum set as realistic as possible.
Are there any plans to work on a "drumteq" plugin?
I would appreciate to hear some thoughts about it!
