This is not the right way to simulate trombones at all. In a funny way a trombone is an analog system that transforms a small set of input frequencies through varying tube lengths to produce a near infinite set of output frequencies.

I feel it’s good to come clean and admit that nearly every night I spend an hour unwinding by trying to simulate trombone acoustics using subtractive and FM synthesis and the open source synth Surge XT.

Doing a batch conversion of ~20k txt, docx, doc, abiword, and wordperfect files (my Dad's stuff) using headless LibreOffice + GNU parallel, resulting in this happening in the dock, which was kind of neat.
