[sdiy] Resonant Cavity Modeller (was Re: [sdiy] transducers)

Ok, waffle about patents aside (not exactly helpfull guys!).

I can't see why you'd have a problem.
As several people have hinted at, the easiest way to get your 'bunch of
strings' is to find an old piano and rip its guts out.
Perhaps even keep it, and use it as your 'box' to put it all in, add a big
speaker at one end (or several smaller ones) and a couple of mics at the
other..
