Christian, Attaching something to the shrouds that would dampen the vibrations will help. If it is the lower shrouds you might be able to stretch a rubber band around the pair to quiet them down. On a single shroud, a weighty piece of rubber attached to it should help, preferably something streamlined that doesn't create too much drag.

At first I thought it was a generator or an engine sound propagated by water but I realized it's the strings of this big violin that are singing. Any idea how you get rid of that without messing up the rig balance? Is it the baby stay? I have a lower that is a little loose and when I tension it the sound pitch changes but does not go away.
