RipplerX 是一款物理建模合成器，能够产生类似于 AAS Chromaphone 和 Ableton Collision 的声音。

RipplerX 是 Rippler2 在 Reaper DAW 上的移植版。它最初是一个物理建模鼓组的研究项目，最终发展成为一款主要基于 AAS Chromaphone 和 Saike 的 Partials 的合成器。

它的第一个版本基于 Partials，因为它是我能找到的少数开源模态合成器之一。之后，主要参考对象变成了 Chromaphone 和 Collision。它们的控制键和模型几乎一一对应。

RipplerX 增加了非谐波度 (Inharmonicity) 和模型比率 (Ratio) 的控制键，并拥有独特的声音。Chromaphone 是一款功能更全面、功能更丰富的合成器；它拥有更复杂的槌音生成器、基于物理的串行耦合、更出色的用户界面等等。如果您喜欢这款合成器，绝对值得一试。

RipplerX 的价值在于它是 AAS 插件的开源替代品。它还为开发者或研究人员提供了物理建模的切入点。

最后要说的是 Chromaphone：它真正与众不同之处在于它的耦合系统。考虑到我之前花在耦合系统上的时间，我想我可能还没能搞清楚。AAS 插件在这方面仍然无与伦比。

RipplerX is a physically modeled synth, capable of sounds similar to AAS Chromaphone and Ableton Collision.

RipplerX is a port of Rippler2 for the Reaper DAW. It started as a research project into physically modelled drums and ended up a synth heavily based on AAS Chromaphone and Saike's Partials.

The first version was based off Partials since it is one of the few open source modal synths I could find. From there, the main reference became Chromaphone and Collision. The controls and models are almost a one-to-one match.

RipplerX has additional controls for Inharmonicity and model Ratio and a distinct sound. Chromaphone is a more complete synth with more features; it has a more sophisticated mallet generator, physics-based serial coupling, a better UI, etc. If you like this synth, you should definitely check it out.

The value of RipplerX is as an open source alternative to AAS plugins. It also provides an entry point for developers or researchers into physical modelling.

A final note on Chromaphone: what really sets it apart is its coupling system. I don't think I will be able to figure it out, judging by the time I spent on that already. The AAS plugin remains unparalleled in that aspect.
