[frs] Tension: Excitator "Bow" causes distorted noise

[dancing Ray]

When I set the excitator in Tension to Bow it will play a distorted noise.

Hi,

it is a bit like on a real violin: easy to get some noise and hard to get a nice sound. Try adjusting the
Force and Friction parameters. If this does not work, please send us an example preset that demonstrates the issue.

Ok, I think I was unpatient. Please accept my apologies.

Nevertheless I am surprised that the "Bow" sounds that ugly by default (and drives the master level into the red).

[Friedemann]

For these kinds of instruments it is better to start from a library
preset that sounds already 'close' to the sound you want and
modify it instead of starting from the default settings.

Oh no no no!
But that´s a different topic.
