ReSoNANt choRdS (SteReo ANd MoNo)

The Resonant Chord algorithm uses impulsive energy at the inputs to excite
six resonant voices (notes). The level, pitch, duration, and high-frequency
cutoff of the overtones for each voice are separately controllable. Each voice
can be panned independently. The voices resonate to some degree with any
input, but the most effective excitation contains all frequencies, like percus-
sion. Other instruments may give a quality of tonal ambience in which cer-
tain notes rise ethereally from the background. The output of the resonator
is then fed into a stereo plate reverb effect.

The two algorithms differ in the way pitches are assigned to the resona-
tors. In Res1>Plate, pitches are assigned to the six voices chromatically, in a
