Reproduce the Delicate Pluck of A Single String

Sakura can reproduce the delicate pluck of a single string, a violin's bowing, or the sonorous resonance of a grand piano. Most importantly, the curious musician can take control of every aspect of the simulation to create fantastic instruments. Ever wanted to know what a 20-foot guitar sounded like? Or a bowed piano? Now you can find out, Sakura opens up a world of string modeling possibilities, why not download the Sakura demo and try it for yourself. The Sakurazensen is coming, be there to experience it.

Virtual Modeling in Sakura Follows a 5 Stage Process:

• Contact - An impulse, the mechanical contact with the string, is first generated then shaped to simulate plucks, picks, scrapes, hammers, taps or humble fingers.
• Vibration - Sakura’s dual string model then gives the operator control over a wide range of parameters such as damping, tension, positioning, and string properties.
• String interaction – The dual strings are then mixed, panned, and enveloped to simulate interactions.
• Resonance - The string/s vibration then interacts with an 8-resonator "body simulator" to create the size, material, and shape of the instrument
• Acoustics - Virtual acoustic space is then simulated with chorus, delay, and reverberation effects.

System Requirements

• Sakura works inside FL Studio both under Windows and macOS
• General FL Studio system requirements apply
