@mjmdavis Glad it helped! I'm afraid adjusting those parameters is more of an art. Even gravity we rarely set to 9.8 😅 And no, in the examples from my blog there isn't any damping factor. Have a look a this survey though, it has some good refs https://t.co/fKqXPF2Ji5
@JasonHise64 I agree, there are some good interactive resources on the internet, but I'm talking textbooks here—the books that cost college students fortunes and of which publishers keep releasing yearly editions.
@EliFitch GarageBand is a cool simple DAW for iOS that you can use. You can setup a keyboard with a predetermined scale depending on the mood you want and then play around adjusting notes as desired. Music Memos is another one from apple that lets you quickly record musical ideas.
