@gahlord@post.lurk.org Is "anti-resonance" or similar a thing? Noticing if I'm playing an open E and the A near the 12th fret it kind of deadens the A, bit like the sponge-under-the-bridge trick.

@_thegeoff@mastodon.social @gahlord@post.lurk.org Yes, anti-resonance (aka damping, or spectral zeroes) is defo a thing in acoustics. It can be conceived of as a freq component travelling in the opposite direction from the direction in which the main wave is travelling, thus subtracting from energy in that freq. #acoustics
