pluck()

void MayaFlux::Nodes::Network::WaveguideNetwork::pluck	(	double	position = 0.5,
		double	strength = 1.0
	)

Pluck the string at a normalized position.

Parameters

position	Normalized position along string (0.0 to 1.0)
strength	Excitation amplitude (0.0 to 1.0+)

Fills the delay line with a shaped noise burst. Position affects spectral content: 0.5 = center (warm), near 0/1 = bridge (bright).
