I've seen this question asked before and it always seems to go down the wrong road. What I'm looking for is the impulse response of an acoustic guitar body resonating. The purpose of this is to convolve an electric violin with the impulse to make it sound more like an acoustic violin. I know it won't work perfectly, but it actually does work pretty darn well.
I have found 2 impulses that are what I'm looking for, but both of them are sampled at 22kHz. I'd like to find one that is sampled at at least 44.1kHz. I've looked everywhere but can't seem to find any.
Just to hear what I'm going for, this is the sound of my electric violin dry:
and this is what it sounds like after convolving it with the 22kHz impulse that I found + some reverb:
it's not perfect, but I think it's about a zillion steps up from the dry sound.
If there don't exist any, anyone know of any good ways to make one? I can't really think of a good way to do it without attaching some sort of driver to it and doing a swept sine wave. I guess I could try dropping a speaker inside a guitar and doing it that way. I guess it's worth a shot.
