Detailed Description

STK simple brass instrument class.

This class implements a simple brass instrument waveguide model, a la Cook (TBone, HosePlayer).

This is a digital waveguide model, making its use possibly subject to patents held by Stanford University, Yamaha, and others.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Brass::Brass StkFloat  lowestFrequency  ) 
 

Class constructor, taking the lowest desired playing frequency.

An StkError will be thrown if the rawwave path is incorrectly set.


Member Function Documentation

StkFrames& Brass::tick StkFrames frames,
unsigned int  channel = 1
[virtual]
 

Fill a channel of the StkFrames object with computed outputs.

The channel argument should be one or greater (the first channel is specified by 1). An StkError will be thrown if the channel argument is zero or it is greater than the number of channels in the StkFrames object.

Reimplemented from Instrmnt.
