I am trying to modify one of the Gen~ examples, the waveguide string physical model.

I like the timbre it has with the dampen param set to a lower value, but the string sustains forever. Is there a way to achieve that timber but have the sustain be much lower? Like 1000 milisec or around there? It seems to sustain forever as it is now. If you set the dampen value high it sounds really choked and changes the sound a lot.

I don't know if I altered the original ( i hope i didn't) but this is what I'm working with. Also, I can't find the link it says it is based on, it seems to be missing from the forum.

Hi Nicnut, cool sounding patch. The delays do not seem to be managed in these patches, especially the resonator, so feedback will be an issue unless you perhaps set an external param to moderate the delay times to a lower value.

Austin, I tried messing with a lot of the stuff in the gen~ box but couldn't really get it so sound different without ruining the sound entirely.

I did disconnect the resonator and it decreased the sustain times a lot. I am using this to play a lot of chords and the notes kind of start piling up after a while and it gets a little muddy.
