longitudinal matching.
but one of the things that can go wrong with a bad string is a sharp
longitudinal wave. a successful string design includes loudness AND
inharmonicity AND longitudinal wave matching....."

The few examples, that I have seen, where Longitudinal matching was used in
the calculation of a scale, were dismal, to say the least. I truly hate to
be a naysayer, but you're going to have to prove it to me first.
If you can do that, then I'll jump on your bandwagon.
One question, can this "modeling" be used in conjunction with other
programs?
