Modification of the loop filter design for a plucked string instrument

A modified loop filter design method for plucked string instruments is introduced. Previous loop filter designs do not properly represent the frequency-dependent damping of a silk stringed instrument. To solve this problem, the modified method evaluates how many harmonics are required and which portion of the sound should be chosen to effectively replicate the instrument. Then, the most reasonable filter parameters are determined based on the frequency signal-to-noise ratio of the synthesized sound.
