I'm curious about the reference to "the latest academic research in physical modeling" in the Kaivo product description. I'll certainly be doing some reading to learn more about this, but I wonder what folks here might add. Are there applications for this kind of tech outside of music production? Civil engineering? "Digital twin" type simulation design?
Very cool software, I don't think I've ever purchased something so quickly after downloading the demo :D
The kind of physical modeling I used in Kaivo's body was invented for solving differential equations. These were often electrical - for antenna design for example. More recently people began using them for synthesis. The book Numerical Sound Synthesis by Stefan Bilbao is the definitive guide.
Thanks for the kind words!
