   More looning around this morning. This time I'm trying to build a crude model around the "cry" of the loon. (Recording: reference, synthesized (wet), synthesized (dry))
   The pitch curve of the cry is both jumping and rising. The jumps (which sound like voice cracks) remind me of yodeling.
   Since my loon call yesterday, I've added a bit more grit to the sine oscillator spectrum. I've also added a bit of ambience noise using filtered white noise and sparse noise for pops.
