Pluck - Audacity Manual

# Pluck

From Audacity Development Manual
Pluck generates a synthesized pluck tone with abrupt or gradual fade-out, and selectable pitch corresponding to a MIDI note.

| Note carefully that when you apply a Generator to a selected time-stretched clip the changed speed of the clip will be automatically rendered. If you apply a Generator to a selection within a time-stretched clip then Audacity will split the original clip so that the selection can be rendered as part of applying the Generator
